Mover is a homomeric phospho-protein present on synaptic vesicles.
PLoS ONE, 2013 With remarkably few exceptions, the molecules mediating synaptic vesicle exocytosis at active zones are structurally and functionally conserved between vertebrates and invertebrates. Mover was found in a yeast-2-hybrid assay using the vertebrate-specific

The road not taken: Less traveled roads from the TGN to the plasma membrane [PDF]
, 2015 : The trans-Golgi network functions in the distribution of cargo into different transport vesicles that are destined to endosomes, lysosomes and the plasma membrane. Over the years, it has become clear that more than one transport pathway promotes plasma

Characterization of VAMP2 in Schistosoma japonicum and the Evaluation of Protective Efficacy Induced by Recombinant SjVAMP2 in Mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The outer-tegument membrane covering the schistosome is believed to maintain via the fusion of membranous vesicles. Fusion of biological membranes is a fundamental process in all eukaryotic cells driven by formation of trans-SNARE (soluble N ...

Exploring the functional domain and the target of the tetanus toxin light chain in neurohypophysial terminals [PDF]
, 1994 The tetanus toxin light chain blocks calcium induced vasopressin release from neurohypophysial nerve terminals. Here we show that histidine residue 233 within the putative zinc binding motif of the tetanus toxin light chain is essential for the ...

Human VAMP3 Suppresses or Negatively Regulates Bax Induced Apoptosis in Yeast
Biomedicines, 2021 Apoptosis is an essential process that is regulated genetically and could lead to a serious disease condition if not well controlled. Bax is one of the main proapoptotic proteins and actively involved in programmed cell death.

Identification of MarvelD3 as a tight junction-associated transmembrane protein of the occludin family [PDF]
, 2009 Background: Tight junctions are an intercellular adhesion complex of epithelial and endothelial cells, and form a paracellular barrier that restricts the diffusion of solutes on the basis of size and charge.
