This study shows that alternative splicing of synaptotagmin 7 affects its oligomerization and function in short-term synaptic plasticity.

This study shows that the juxtamembrane linker of synaptotagmin 1 mediates liquid-liquid phase separation, which modulates Ca2+ binding and synaptic vesicle exocytosis.

This study compares synaptotagmin-1 and synaptotagmin-7, finding that synaptotagmin-7 more effectively penetrates membranes and stabilizes fusion pores during exocytosis.
