0695/50) prior to immersion fixation. Synaptotagmin-1 was detected using a Mouse Anti-Rat Synaptotagmin-1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB4364). The cells were stained with the NorthernLights 557-conjugated Donkey Anti-Mouse IgG Affinity-purified Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL007). The cell nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). Synaptotagmin-1 immunoreactivity was localized to synaptic vesicles in the cytoplasm and on the plasma membrane.

Synaptotagmin is widely regarded as the primary calcium sensor for synaptic vesicle exocytosis (Fernandez-Chacon et al., 2001; Wang et al., 2003). Moreover recent studies indicate that the protein also plays a key role in endocytosis (Poskanzer et al., 2003). Synaptotagmin can be phosphorylated by multiple protein kinases and this may play a key role in modulation of synaptotagmin ability to influence both the exocytotic and endocytotic components of synaptic transmission (Hilfiker et al., 1999; Lee et al., 2004).
