Synaptotagmins constitute a family of membrane-trafficking proteins that are characterized by an N-terminal transmembrane region, a variable linker, and two C-terminal C2 domains - C2A and C2B. There
Molecular machinery driving exocytosis in neurotransmitter release: the core SNARE complex (formed by four α-helices contributed by synaptobrevin, syntaxin and SNAP-25) and the Ca2+ sensor synaptotagmin.
