VAMP3

Synaptobrevins/VAMPs, syntaxins, and the 25-kD synaptosomal-associated protein are the main components of a protein complex involved in the docking and/or fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane. This gene is a member of the vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP)/synaptobrevin family. Because of its high homology to other known VAMPs, its broad tissue distribution, and its subcellular localization, the protein encoded by this gene was shown to be the human equivalent of the rodent cellubrevin. In platelets the protein resides on a compartment that is not mobilized to the plasma membrane on calcium or thrombin stimulation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Ubiquitinated by RNF167 at Lys-66, Lys-68 and Lys-77, regulating the recycling endosome pathway.
(Microbial infection) Targeted and hydrolyzed by C.botulinum neurotoxin type B (BoNT/B, botB) which hydrolyzes the 59-Gln-|-Phe-60 bond and probably inhibits neurotransmitter release (PubMed:22289120).
(Microbial infection) Targeted and hydrolyzed by C.botulinum neurotoxin type D (BoNT/D, botD) which hydrolyzes the 42-Lys-|-Leu-43 bond and probably inhibits neurotransmitter release (PubMed:22289120).
Note that humans are not known to be infected by C.botulinum type D.
(Microbial infection) Targeted and hydrolyzed by C.botulinum neurotoxin type F (BoNT/F, botF) which hydrolyzes the 41-Gln-|-Lys-42 bond and probably inhibits neurotransmitter release (PubMed:22289120).
