Species Reactivity Note: The antibody has been directly tested for reactivity in human, pig, hamster, rat, rabbit, mouse, and bovine. Biological Significance: Synaptobrevin (aka VAMP) is an integral membrane protein of synaptic vesicles that plays a major role in the formation of larger SNARE complexes, along with SNAP-25 and syntaxin. Synaptobrevin has been shown to be essential for two fast synapse-specific membrane trafficking processes: fast exocytosis for neurotransmitter release and fast endocytosis that mediates rapid recycling of synaptic vesicles (Deak et al., 2004). Decreased levels of synaptobrevin in human hippocampus and cortex have been correlated with cognitive defects in Alzheimer's disease (Sze et al., 2000).

ncbi summary :
Synaptobrevins/VAMPs, syntaxins, and the 25-kD synaptosomal-associated protein SNAP25 are the main components of a protein complex involved in the docking and/or fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane. VAMP1 is a member of the vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP)/synaptobrevin family. Multiple alternative splice variants that encode proteins with alternative carboxy ends have been described, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been defined.
