NSF (<i>N</i>-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor) and α-SNAP (α-soluble NSF attachment protein) bind to the SNARE (soluble NSF attachment protein receptor) complex, the minimum machinery to mediate membrane fusion, to form a 20S complex, which disassembles the SNARE complex for reuse. We report the cryo-EM structures of the α-SNAP-SNARE subcomplex and the NSF-D1D2 domain in the 20S complex at 3.9- and 3.7-Å resolutions, respectively. Combined with the biochemical and electrophysiological analyses, ...[more]
