Synaptic vesicles are clustered in presynaptic terminals, with a reserve pool that is mobilized during synaptic activity. Synapsins play a key role in maintaining these vesicles within the reserve pool, potentially by either cross-linking them or creating a liquid phase environment.
In presynaptic terminals, synaptic vesicles (SVs) are found in a discrete cluster that includes a reserve pool that is mobilized during synaptic activity. Synapsins serve as a key protein for maintaining SVs within this reserve pool, but the mechanism that allows synapsins to do this is unclear. This mechanism is likely to involve synapsins either cross-linking SVs, thereby anchoring SVs to each other, or creating a liquid phase that allows SVs to float within a synapsin droplet. Here, we summarize what is known about the role of synapsins in clustering of SVs and evaluate experimental evidence supporting these two models.
