Negative Coupling as a Mechanism for Signal Propagation between C2 Domains of Synaptotagmin I
Synaptotagmin I (Syt I) is a vesicle-localized protein implicated in sensing the calcium influx that triggers fast synchronous release of neurotransmitter. How Syt I utilizes its two C2 domains to integrate signals and mediate neurotransmission has continued to be a controversial area of research, though prevalent hypotheses favor independent function. Using differential scanning calorimetry an...
متن کاملPosition of synaptotagmin I at the membrane interface: cooperative interactions of tandem C2 domains.
Synaptotagmin I is a synaptic vesicle associated membrane protein that appears to regulate Ca(2+)-mediated exocytosis. Here, the Ca(2+)-dependent membrane interactions of a water soluble fragment of synaptotagmin I (C2AB) that contains its two C2 domains (C2A and C2B) were determined using site-directed spin labeling. Membrane depth parameters were obtained for 19 spin-labeled mutants of C2AB w...
متن کاملPostsynaptic regulation of synaptic plasticity by synaptotagmin 4 requires both C2 domains
Ca(2+) influx into synaptic compartments during activity is a key mediator of neuronal plasticity. Although the role of presynaptic Ca(2+) in triggering vesicle fusion though the Ca(2+) sensor synaptotagmin 1 (Syt 1) is established, molecular mechanisms that underlie responses to postsynaptic Ca(2+) influx remain unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that fusion-competent Syt 4 vesicles locali...
متن کاملDifferential regulation of synchronous versus asynchronous neurotransmitter release by the C2 domains of synaptotagmin 1.
Synaptic vesicle fusion at many synapses has been kinetically separated into two distinct Ca(2+)-dependent temporal components consisting of a rapid synchronous phase followed by a slower asynchronous component. Mutations in the synaptic vesicle Ca(2+) sensor Synaptotagmin 1 (Syt 1) reduce synchronous neurotransmission while enhancing the slower asynchronous phase of release. Syt 1 regulation o...
متن کاملFunctional and biochemical analysis of the C2 domains of synaptotagmin IV.
Synaptotagmins (Syts) are a family of vesicle proteins that have been implicated in both regulated neurosecretion and general membrane trafficking. Calcium-dependent interactions mediated through their C2 domains are proposed to contribute to the mechanism by which Syts trigger calcium-dependent neurotransmitter release. Syt IV is a novel member of the Syt family that is induced by cell depolar...
