The CD63 homologs, Tsp42Ee and Tsp42Eg, restrict endocytosis and promote neurotransmission through differential regulation of synaptic vesicle pools

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
The Tetraspanin (Tsp), CD63, is a transmembrane component of late endosomes and facilitates vesicular trafficking through endosomal pathways. Despite being widely expressed in the human brain and localized to late endosomes, CD63's role in regulating ...

Effects of Excess Brain-Derived Human α-Synuclein on Synaptic Vesicle Trafficking

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
α-Synuclein is a presynaptic protein that regulates synaptic vesicle trafficking under physiological conditions. However, in several neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, and multiple system atrophy, α ...

Calcium dependence of neurotransmitter release at a high fidelity synapse

open access: yeseLife, 2021
The Ca2+-dependence of the priming, fusion, and replenishment of synaptic vesicles are fundamental parameters controlling neurotransmitter release and synaptic plasticity.

Activity-dependence of synaptic vesicle dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The proper function of synapses relies on efficient recycling of synaptic vesicles. The small size of synaptic boutons has hampered efforts to define the dynamical states of vesicles during recycling.

Synaptic Vesicle Endocytosis [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2012
Neurons can sustain high rates of synaptic transmission without exhausting their supply of synaptic vesicles. This property relies on a highly efficient local endocytic recycling of synaptic vesicle membranes, which can be reused for hundreds, possibly thousands, of exo-endocytic cycles. Morphological, physiological, molecular, and genetic studies over

LRRK2 phosphorylates pre-synaptic N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion (NSF) protein enhancing its ATPase activity and SNARE complex disassembling rate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background Lrrk2, a gene linked to Parkinson\u2019s disease, encodes a large scaffolding protein with kinase and GTPase activities implicated in vesicle and cytoskeletal-related processes.

Clathrin coat controls synaptic vesicle acidification by blocking vacuolar ATPase activity

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Newly-formed synaptic vesicles (SVs) are rapidly acidified by vacuolar adenosine triphosphatases (vATPases), generating a proton electrochemical gradient that drives neurotransmitter loading.

Synapsin selectively controls the mobility of resting pool vesicles at hippocampal terminals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Presynaptic terminals are specialized sites for information transmission where vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane and are locally recycled. Recent work has extended this classical view, with the observation that a subset of functional vesicles is ...

How do you recognize and reconstitute a synaptic vesicle after fusion? [version 1; referees: 3 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2017
Synaptic vesicle recycling is essential for sustained and reliable neurotransmission. A key component of synaptic vesicle recycling is the synaptic vesicle biogenesis process that is observed in synapses and that maintains the molecular identity of ...
