Synaptic vesicle biogenesis involves the recycling of synaptic vesicle components by clathrin-mediated endocytosis from the presynaptic membrane. stoned B, a protein encoded by the stoned locus in Drosophila melanogaster has been shown to regulate vesicle recycling by interacting with synaptotagmin. We report here the identification and characterization of a human homolog of stoned B (hStnB). Human stoned B is a brain-specific protein which co-enriches with other endocytic proteins such as AP-2 ...[more]
