In neurones, the morphological complexity of the dendritic tree requires regulated growth
and the appropriate targeting of membrane components. Accurate delivery of specific
supplies depends on the translocation and fusion of transport vesicles. Vesicle SNAREs
(soluble N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptors) and target
membrane SNAREs play a central role in the correct execution of fusion events, and
mediate interactions with molecules that endow the system with appropriate regulation …
