Conserved arginine residues in synaptotagmin 1 regulate fusion pore expansion through membrane contact
Synaptotagmin 1 (Syt1) is the calcium sensor for fast synchronous neurotransmitter release but the mechanism by which it functions is still under debate. Here, the authors combine EPR measurements and functional studies and observe that different faces of the Syt1 C2B domain play different roles in...
