Sphingosine facilitates SNARE complex assembly and activates synaptic vesicle exocytosisDarios, Frédéric ...Synaptic vesicles loaded with neurotransmitters fuse with the plasma membrane to release their content into the extracellular space, thereby allowing neuronal communication. The membrane fusion ... process is mediated by a conservedset of SNARE proteins: vesicuJar synaptobrevin and plasma membrane syntaxin and SNAP-25. Recent data suggest that the fusion process may be subject to regulation by local lipid metabolism. Here, we have performed a screen of lipid compounds to identify positive regulators of vesicular synaptobrevin. We show that sphingosine, areleasable backbone of sphingolipids, activates synaptobrevin in synaptic vesicles to form the SNARE compJex implicated in membrane fusion. Consistent with the roJe of synaptobrevin in vesicle fusion, sphingosine upregulated exocytosis in isolated nerve terminais, neuromuscular junctions, neuroendocrine celi s and hippocampal neurons, but not in neurons obtained from synaptobrevin-2 knockoutmice. Further mechanistic insights suggest that sphingosine acts on the synaptobrevin/phospholipid interface, defining anovel function for this important lipid regulator.Source: Neuron. - ISSN 0896-6273 (Letn. 62, 2009, str. 683-694)Type of material - article, component partPublish date - 2009Language - englishCOBISS.SI-ID - 25625305
