NbSyt1 anti-(rat Synaptotagmin-1) nanobody bound to target cytosolic domain of Synaptotagmin-1
Structural highlights
FunctionSYT1_RAT May have a regulatory role in the membrane interactions during trafficking of synaptic vesicles at the active zone of the synapse. It binds acidic phospholipids with a specificity that requires the presence of both an acidic head group and a diacyl backbone. A Ca(2+)-dependent interaction between synaptotagmin and putative receptors for activated protein kinase C has also been reported. It can bind to at least three additional proteins in a Ca(2+)-independent manner; these are neurexins, syntaxin and AP2. Publication Abstract from PubMedImaging of living synapses has relied for over two decades on the overexpression of synaptic proteins fused to fluorescent reporters. This strategy alters the stoichiometry of synaptic components and ultimately affects synapse physiology. To overcome these limitations, here a nanobody is presented that binds the calcium sensor synaptotagmin-1 (NbSyt1). This nanobody functions as an intrabody (iNbSyt1) in living neurons and is minimally invasive, leaving synaptic transmission almost unaffected, as suggested by the crystal structure of the NbSyt1 bound to Synaptotagmin-1 and by the physiological data. Its single-domain nature enables the generation of protein-based fluorescent reporters, as showcased here by measuring spatially localized presynaptic Ca(2+) with a NbSyt1- jGCaMP8 chimera. Moreover, the small size of NbSyt1 makes it ideal for various super-resolution imaging methods. Overall, NbSyt1 is a versatile binder that will enable imaging in cellular and molecular neuroscience with unprecedented precision across multiple spatiotemporal scales.
