Abstract
VAMP721 and VAMP722, play crucial roles in membrane fusion at post-Golgi compartments. They are involved in cell plate formation, recycling, endocytosis, and secretion. While individual SNARE actors and regulators exhibit significant overlap, specificity is achieved through distinct combinations of these components. Cytokinesis-related SNAREs traffic as preformed CIS-complexes, which require disassembly by the NSF/αSNAP chaperoning complex to facilitate subsequent homotypic fusion at the cell plate. Recent findings suggest a similar mechanism may operate during secretion. Regulation of VAMP721 activity involves interactions with tethers, GTPases, and Sec1/Munc18 proteins, along with a newly discovered phosphorylation at Tyrosine residue 57. These advances provide valuable insights into the fascinating world of cellular trafficking and membrane fusion.
