Biolegend, 853711, Alexa Fluor® 488 anti-Synapsin I/II/III Antibody, 25μg

Synapsins are a family of proteins involved in neurotransmitter release at the chemical synapses. Synapsins anchor synaptic vesicles to the cytoskeletal structures at the presynaptic terminal. Upon receiving an action potential, phosphorylation of synapsins, possibly by PKA, leads to the release of synaptic vesicles from cytoskeletal structures. This allows membrane docking and fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane and neurotransmitter release.
