SNARE protein syntaxin-1 colocalizes closely with NMDA receptor subunit NR2B in postsynaptic spines in the hippocampus

Syntaxins are a family of membrane-integrated proteins that are instrumental in exocytosis of vesicles. Syntaxin-1 is an essential component of the presynaptic exocytotic fusion machinery in the brain and interacts with several other proteins. Syntaxin-1 forms a four-helical bundle complex with prot...
