Abstract
English
Sec1/ Munc18 (SM) proteins are indispensible regulators of intracellular membrane fusion. In general, the high-affinity binding partners of SM proteins are Qa-SNAREs (syntaxins). Despite the high structural homology among SM proteins, different modes are proposed for their association with syntaxins. Neuronal Munc18a binds to a ‟closed conformation
