.... Interaction with gangliosides accumulates the neurotoxins on the plasma membrane and binding to a synaptic vesicle membrane protein leads to neurotoxin endocytosis. SV2 (synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2) mediates the uptake of BoNT/A and /E, whereas Syt (synaptotagmin) is responsible for the endocytosis...

...Mitsunori FUKUDA Although PC12 cells express three synaptotagmin isoforms (Syts I, IV and IX), all of which have been proposed to regulate dense-core vesicle exocytosis, it remains unknown which of the Sytisoforms acts as the major Ca 2+ sensor for dense-core vesicle exocytosis. In the present...

...Colin RICKMAN; Molly CRAXTON; Shona OSBORNE; Bazbek DAVLETOV Intracellular membrane traffic is governed by a conserved set of proteins, including Syts (synaptotagmins). The mammalian Syt family includes 15 isoforms. Syts are membrane proteins that possess tandem C2 domains (C2AB) implicated...

... anchoring (e.g. synaptotagmin) or specific ligand binding (e.g. rabphilin-3A and Doc2), no research has been conducted on the function of the N-terminal domain of B/K protein. In this study we showed that despite lacking a transmembrane domain, both native and recombinant B/K proteins are tightly bound...
