'''N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor''', also known as '''NSF''' or '''N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion proteins''', is a human [[gene]].<ref name="entrez">{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: NSF N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=4905| accessdate = }}</ref> It is a trimeric ATPase involved in membrane fusion.
NSF is ubiquitously found in the [[cytoplasm]] of eukaryotic cells. It is a central component of the cellular machinery in the transfer of membrane [[vesicle (biology) |vesicles]] from one membrane compartment to another. During this process, [[SNARE]] proteins on two joining membranes (usually a vesicle and a target membrane such as the [[plasma membrane]]) form a tight complex. This aids fusion of the vesicle with the target membrane. The role of NSF is to undo these SNARE complexes once membrane fusion has occurred, using the hydrolysis of [[Adenosine triphosphate | ATP]] as an energy source. The dissociated SNAREs can then be recycled for reuse in further rounds of membrane fusion.


==SNARE hypothesis==
== Function ==


Because  neuronal function depends on the release of [[neurotransmitter]]s at a [[synapse]] — a process in which [[synaptic vesicle]]s fuse with the presynaptic membrane — NSF is a key synaptic component. Thus, conditional temperature-sensitive [[mutation]]s in the [[Drosophila]] gene for NSF lead to a comatose behaviour at the restrictive temperature (and hence the gene is called comatose), presumably because neuronal functions are blocked. In [[Dictyostelium]] amoebae, similar mutations lead to a cessation of cell movement at the restrictive temperature, indicating a role for intracellular membrane transport in migration. Another neuronal role for NSF is indicated by its direct binding to the GluR2 subunit of [[AMPA receptor|AMPA]] type [[glutamate receptor|glutamate receptors]] (which detect the neurotransmitter [[glutamate]]). This gives NSF a putative role in delivery and [[gene expression|expression]] of AMPA receptors at the [[synapse]]<ref>Noel J, Ralph GS, Pickard L, Williams J, Molnar E, Uney JB, Collingridge GL and Henley JM, 1999. Surface expression of AMPA receptors in hippocampal neurons is regulated by an NSF-dependent mechanism. ''Neuron'', '''23'''(2):365-76.</ref>.

NSF was discovered by [[James Rothman]] and colleagues in 1979 whilst at [[Stanford University]]; they identified NSF after observing that a cytoplasmic factor, required for membrane fusions, was inactivated by treatment with [[N-ethylmaleimide]]. This assay enabled them to purify NSF.

N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor, also known as NSF or N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion proteins, is an enzyme which in humans is encoded by the NSF gene.[1][2][3]

Function

NSF is a homohexameric AAA ATPase involved in membrane fusion.[4] NSF is ubiquitously found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. It is a central component of the cellular machinery in the transfer of membrane vesicles from one membrane compartment to another. During this process, SNARE proteins on two joining membranes (usually a vesicle and a target membrane such as the plasma membrane) form a tight complex. This aids fusion of the vesicle with the target membrane. It has been proposed that the role of NSF is to undo these SNARE complexes once membrane fusion has occurred, using the hydrolysis of ATP as an energy source, allowing the dissociated SNAREs to be recycled for reuse in further rounds of membrane fusion.[5] This proposal remains controversial, however. Recent work indicates that the ATPase function of NSF does not function in recycling of vesicles but rather functions in the act of fusing vesicles with the plasma membrane.[6]

SNARE hypothesis

Because neuronal function depends on the release of neurotransmitters at a synapse — a process in which synaptic vesicles fuse with the presynaptic membrane — NSF is a key synaptic component. Thus, conditional temperature-sensitive mutations in the Drosophila melanogaster gene for NSF lead to a comatose behaviour at the restrictive temperature (and hence the gene is called comatose), presumably because neuronal functions are blocked. In Dictyostelium discoideum amoebae, similar mutations lead to a cessation of cell movement at the restrictive temperature, indicating a role for intracellular membrane transport in migration. Another neuronal role for NSF is indicated by its direct binding to the GluR2 subunit of AMPA type glutamate receptors (which detect the neurotransmitter glutamate). This gives NSF a putative role in delivery and expression of AMPA receptors at the synapse.[7]

NSF was discovered by James Rothman and colleagues in 1987 while at Stanford University; they identified NSF after observing that a cytoplasmic factor, required for membrane fusions, was inactivated by treatment with N-ethylmaleimide. This assay enabled them to purify NSF.[8]

Interactions

N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion protein has been shown to interact with NAPA.[9][10]
