ANSWER: synapses [or synaptic cleft; reject “electrical synapses”]
[10m] This complex, which includes syntaxin and synaptobrevin, is responsible for mediating vesicle fusion in the presynaptic membrane. These zipper-like proteins have v- and t- types.
ANSWER: SNARE complex [or soluble NSF attachment protein receptor]
