Abnormal Synaptic Vesicle Biogenesis in Drosophila Synaptogyrin Mutants
- BiologyThe Journal of Neuroscience
- 2012
It is demonstrated that Drosophila synaptogyrin plays a modulatory role in synaptic vesicle biogenesis at larval neuromuscular junctions and modulates the synapticvesicle exo-endocytic cycle and is required for the proper biogenesis of synaptic vESicles at nerve terminals.

Synaptophysin Is Required for Synaptobrevin Retrieval during Synaptic Vesicle Endocytosis
- BiologyThe Journal of Neuroscience
- 2011
A specific and selective requirement for synaptophysin is identified in the retrieval of the pH-sensitive fluorescent reporter sybII-pHluorin from the plasma membrane during endocytosis, suggesting that their interaction may act as an adjustable regulator of SV retrieval efficiency.
The presynaptic machinery at the synapse of C. elegans
- BiologyInvertebrate Neuroscience
- 2018
Research on the major group of synaptic proteins, involved in the presynaptic machinery in C. elegans is reviewed, showing a strong conservation between higher organisms and highlighting how the nematode can be used as an informative tool for dissecting synaptic components, based on a simple nervous system organization.
The iTRAPs: Guardians of Synaptic Vesicle Cargo Retrieval During Endocytosis
- BiologyFront. Synaptic Neurosci.

This review summarizes current knowledge regarding the retrieval mechanisms for both sybII and synaptotagmin-1 during endocytosis and defines and set criteria for a new functional group of SV molecules that facilitate the retrieval of their interaction partners.
Exocytosis and synaptic vesicle function.

Different SNARE protein isoforms and membrane lipids, which interact with SyT1 with various affinities, are capable of regulating the efficacy of Syt1-mediated exocytosis.
Ontogeny of a synaptophysin-mediated GABA transmission mechanism from the ciliary band-associated strand to the ciliary band during the development of the sea urchin Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus
- Biology
- 2018
The synaptic transmission mechanism of GABA is examined by focusing on the spatiotemporal expression pattern of synaptophysin (Syp), a synaptic vesicle glycoprotein in the sea urchin, which encodes a 266-amino acid protein with possibly 4 transmembrane domains.
The ontogeny of synaptophysin expression patterns on the GABAergic ciliary band-associated strand during larval development of the sea urchin, Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus A. Agassiz, 1864
- BiologyZoomorphology
- 2018
The present study indicated close localization of GABA and Syp in the puncta of the CBAS and that, for the first time in the sea urchin nervous system, implicates the Syp-mediated efferent GABA transmission from theCBAS to the CB.
Synaptogyrin-2 Promotes Replication of a Novel Tick-borne Bunyavirus through Interacting with Viral Nonstructural Protein NSs*
- BiologyThe Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 2016
It is hypothesized that synaptogyrin-2 is essential to promoting the formation of the IBs to become virus factories for viral RNA replication through its interaction with NSs, which were reconstructed from lipid droplets into large structures in infection.
Inactivation of GABAA receptor is related to heat shock stress response in organism model Caenorhabditis elegans
- BiologyCell Stress and Chaperones
- 2016
The results of the present study suggest that oxidative stress, through either H2O2 exposure or application of heat shock, inactivates the GABAergic system, which subsequently would affect the oxidative stress response, perhaps by enhancing the activity of transcription factors DAF-16 and HSF-1, both regulated by the IIS pathway and related to hsp-16.2 expression.

It is demonstrated that synaptobrevin is essential for viability and is required for functional synaptic transmission, however, the analysis suggests that transmitter release is not completely eliminated by removal of either one or both v-SNAREs.
