The SNAP-25 linker supports fusion intermediates by local lipid interactions

The SNAP-25 linker supports fusion intermediates by local lipid interactions

SNAP-25 is an essential component of SNARE complexes driving fast Ca2+-dependent exocytosis. Yet, the functional implications of the tandem-like structure of SNAP-25 are unclear. Here, we have investigated the mechanistic role of the acylated “linker” domain that concatenates the two SNARE motifs wi...
