Conserved Arginine Residues in Synaptotagmin 1 Regulate Fusion Pore Expansion Through Membrane Contact

Sarah B. Nyenhuis, Nakul Karandikar, Volker Kiessling…·David S. Cafiso

The paper shows that conserved arginine residues in synaptotagmin 1's C2B domain regulate fusion pore expansion by interacting with membranes during neurotransmitter release.

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate controls the cis and trans interactions of synaptotagmin 1

Sarah B. Nyenhuis, Anusa Thapa, David S. Cafiso

This study investigates how phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate (PIP2) influences the cis and trans interactions of synaptotagmin 1's C2 domains through membrane reconstitution and spin labeling.
