Structural Mechanism of Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-Sensitive Factor Attachment Protein Receptor Complex Assembly in Lipid Bilayers Revealed by Solid-State NMR
Synaptic vesicle fusion is mediated by soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) proteins, including synaptobrevin-2 (Syb-2), syntaxin-1 (Syx-1), and SNAP-25. However, it remains controversial whether the formation of thoroughly contacted ?-helical bundle from the SNARE motifs to the end of the transmembrane domains (TMDs) is necessary for SNARE-mediated membrane fusion. In this study, we characterized the conformation of Syb-2 in different assembly states...
