The Functional Significance of Synaptotagmin Diversity in Neuroendocrine Secretion
Synaptotagmins (syts) are abundant, evolutionarily-conserved integral membrane proteins that play essential roles in regulated exocytosis in nervous and endocrine systems. There are at least 17 syt isoforms in mammals, all with tandem C-terminal C2 domains with highly variable capacities for Ca2+ bi...
