Arabidopsis R-SNARE proteins VAMP721 and VAMP722 are required for cell plate formation. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cell plate formation during plant cytokinesis is facilitated by SNARE complex-mediated vesicle fusion at the cell-division plane. However, our knowledge regarding R-SNARE components of membrane fusion machinery for cell plate formation ...

Distinct contributions of vacuolar Qabc- and R-SNARE proteins to membrane fusion specificity. [PDF]
In eukaryotic endomembrane systems, Qabc-SNAREs (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors) on one membrane and R-SNARE on the opposing membrane assemble into a trans-QabcR-SNARE complex to drive membrane fusion. However, it remains ambiguous whether pairing of Qabc- and R-SNAREs mediates membrane fusion specificity.

The Arabidopsis R‐SNARE VAMP714 is essential for polarisation of PIN proteins and auxin responses [PDF]
Summary The plant hormone auxin and its directional intercellular transport play a major role in diverse aspects of plant growth and development. The establishment of auxin gradients requires the asymmetric distribution of members of the auxin efflux carrier PIN‐FORMED (PIN) protein family to the plasma membrane.

Primary neurons lacking the SNAREs vti1a and vti1b show altered neuronal development
Background Neurons are highly specialized cells with a complex morphology generated by various membrane trafficking steps. They contain Golgi outposts in dendrites, which are formed from somatic Golgi tubules.

Identification of the Yeast R-SNARE Nyv1p as a Novel Longin Domain-containing Protein [PDF]
Using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, we establish that the N-terminal domain of the yeast vacuolar R-SNARE Nyv1p adopts a longin-like fold similar to those of Sec22b and Ykt6p. Nyv1p is sorted to the limiting membrane of the vacuole via the adaptor protein (AP)3 adaptin pathway, and we show that its longin domain is sufficient to direct ...

The Sec1/Munc18 protein Vps45 holds the Qa-SNARE Tlg2 in an open conformation
Fusion of intracellular trafficking vesicles is mediated by the assembly of SNARE proteins into membrane-bridging complexes. SNARE-mediated membrane fusion requires Sec1/Munc18-family (SM) proteins, SNARE chaperones that can function as templates to ...

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of SNARE Genes in Brassica napus
SNAREs (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors) are central components that drive membrane fusion events during exocytosis and endocytosis and play important roles in different biological processes of plants. In this study,
