1 11148145 Syntaxin 4 interacts specifically with Csp1, but not with Csp2.
2 11148145 In addition, the interaction of Csp1 with syntaxin 4 suggests that this Csp isoform may play a role in insulin-stimulated fusion of GSVs with the plasma membrane.
3 17548353 Although Munc18c function is known to involve binding to the t-SNARE Syntaxin 4, a paucity of Munc18c-binding proteins has restricted elucidation of the mechanism by which it facilitates these exocytosis events.
4 17548353 Supporting the notion of Munc18c binding with Syntaxin 4 and Doc2beta in mutually exclusive complexes, in vitro competition with Syntaxin 4 effectively displaced Munc18c from binding to Doc2beta.
5 17548353 Taken together, these data support a model wherein Munc18c transiently switches from association with Syntaxin 4 to association with Doc2beta at the plasma membrane to facilitate exocytosis.
6 17848561 Munc18c is known to be a key regulator of accessibility of the target membrane (t-SNARE) protein syntaxin 4 to participate in SNARE core complex assembly, although a paucity of Munc18c-binding factors has precluded discovery of its precise functions.
7 19188424 Protein interaction studies used subcellular fractions and detergent lysates prepared from MIN6 beta-cells to determine the mechanistic role of Munc18c in Syntaxin 4 activation and docking/fusion of vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP)2-containing insulin granules.
8 19188424 Munc18c depletion ablated the glucose-stimulated VAMP2-Syntaxin 4 association as well as Syntaxin 4 activation, correlating with the deficit in insulin release.
9 20006577 Our results indicate that the t-SNAREs syntaxin4 and SNAP23 are indispensable for the tethering of GLUT4 vesicles to the plasma membrane, whereas the v-SNARE VAMP2 is not required for this step but is essential for the subsequent fusion event.
10 18652694 We investigated the effect of a 12 vs. 48 hr fast on insulin action and skeletal muscle Munc18c and Syntaxin 4 protein in lean and obese subjects.
11 15331531 Insulin-stimulated translocation of GLUT4 vesicles from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane in 3T3L1 adipocytes is mediated through a syntaxin 4 (Syn4)- and Munc18c-dependent mechanism.
12 15734838 The disruption of Munc18c binding to syntaxin 4 impairs insulin-stimulated GLUT4 vesicle translocation in 3T3L1 adipocytes.
13 16638745 Syntaxin 4 binding to Munc18c decreased as Munc18c phosphorylation levels increased in pervanadate-treated cells, suggesting that phosphorylation dissociates the Munc18c-Syntaxin 4 complex.
14 16638745 Mutagenesis of one residue in this region, Y219F, significantly increased the affinity of Munc18c for Syntaxin 4, whereas mutation of three other candidate sites was without effect.
15 18285343 Disruption of F-actin-Syntaxin 4 binding correlated with enhanced glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, mediated by increased granule accumulation at the plasma membrane and increased Syntaxin 4 accessibility under basal conditions.
16 21998599 In vitro binding experiments showed that tomosyn-2 binds recombinant syntaxin-1A and syntaxin-4, key proteins that are involved in insulin secretion via formation of the SNARE complex.
