CAPS and Munc13: CATCHRs that SNARE Vesicles

CAPS (Calcium-dependent Activator Protein for Secretion, aka CADPS) and Munc13 (Mammalian Unc-13) proteins function to prime vesicles for Ca(2+)-triggered exocytosis in neurons and neuroendocrine cells. CAPS and Munc13 proteins contain conserved C-terminal domains that promote the assembly of SNARE complexes for vesicle priming. Similarities of the C-terminal domains of CAPS/Munc13 proteins wit...

v-SNARE Actions during Ca2+-Triggered Exocytosis

Assembly of SNARE proteins between opposing membranes mediates fusion of synthetic liposomes, but it is unknown whether SNAREs act during exocytosis at the moment of Ca(2+) increase, providing the molecular force for fusion of secretory vesicles. Here, we show that execution of pre- and postfusional steps during chromaffin granule exocytosis depends crucially on a short molecular distance betwe...

Syntaxin 2 Acts as Inhibitory SNARE for Insulin Granule Exocytosis

Of the four syntaxins specialized for exocytosis, syntaxin (Syn)-2 is the least understood. In this study, we used Syn-2/epimorphin knockout mice to examine the role of Syn-2 in insulin secretory granule (SG) exocytosis. Unexpectedly, Syn-2 knockout mice exhibited paradoxical superior glucose homeostasis resulting from an enhanced insulin secretion. This was confirmed in vitro by pancreatic isl...

Conformational dynamics of vesicles.

The transport of ions and molecules through membranes is a key ingredient to many biophysical processes. For example, contemporary attempts for gene therapy require transport of DNA fragments through the cellular and nuclear membranes (1); signaling depends on ionic transport through dynamic pores in membranes (see, for example, ref. 2); efficient drug delivery vehicles based on vesicular ‘‘bag...
