Synaptobrevins (synaptobrevin isotypes 1-2) are small integral membrane proteins of secretory vesicles with molecular weight of 18 kilodalton (kDa) that are part of the vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP) family. Synaptobrevin is one of the SNARE proteins involved in formation of the SNARE complexes. ==Structure== Out of four α-helices of ...

(= vSNARE; VAMP-2) Small integral membrane proteins (16.7 kD) of synaptic vesicles. Two isoforms, VAMP-1 and VAMP-2 are known. Bind SNAPs and also interact with target-SNARE (syntaxin). Cleaved by clostridial toxins encoding zinc endopeptidases, such as tetanus toxin and botulinum toxin, blocking synaptic release.
