Synaptosome-associated protein of 25 kDa
(SNAP-25) is a presynaptic membrane protein that has been clearly
implicated in membrane fusion in both developing and mature neurons,
although its mechanisms of action are unclear. We have now identified a
novel SNAP-25-interacting protein named SNIP. SNIP is a hydrophilic,
145-kDa protein that comprises two predicted coiled-coil domains, two
highly charged regions, and two proline-rich domains with multiple
PPXY and PXXP motifs. SNIP is selectively
expressed in brain where it co-distributes with SNAP-25 in most brain
regions. Biochemical studies have revealed that SNIP is tightly
associated with the brain cytoskeleton. Subcellular fractionation
and immunofluorescence localization studies have demonstrated that SNIP
co-localizes with SNAP-25 as well as the cortical actin cytoskeleton,
suggesting that SNIP serves as a linker protein connecting SNAP-25 to
the submembranous cytoskeleton. By using deletion analysis, we have
mapped the binding domains of SNIP and SNAP-25, and we have
demonstrated that the SNIP-SNAP-25 association is mediated via
coiled-coil interactions. Moreover, we have shown that overexpression
of SNIP or its SNAP-25-interacting domain inhibits
Ca2+-dependent exocytosis from PC12 cells.
These results indicate that SNIP is involved in regulation of
neurosecretion, perhaps via its interaction with SNAP-25 and the cytoskeleton.
The nucleotide sequence(s) reported in this paper has been submitted to the GenBankTM/EMBL Data Bank with accession number(s) AF156981 and AF156982.
