C)syntaxin
D)VAMP

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

NSF (N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor) is not a part of the four-helix complex involved in mediating the fusion of synaptic vesicles with the plasma membrane. Instead, it is involved in the disassembly of SNARE complexes after vesicle fusion. SNAP-25, syntaxin, and VAMP (also known as synaptobrevin) are the proteins that form the SNARE complex crucial for this fusion process.
