Mechanism of Exocytosis synapsins anchor vesicle to cytoskeleton Ca 2+ influx activates Ca 2+ /calmodulin dependent kinase (CaMK) phosporylaton of synapsin I release of vesicle from cytoskeleton move to active zone Rab3A binds to vesicle hydrolysis of Rab GTP to GDP + PO 4 targeted to docking site at active zone interaction of v-SNARES and t-SNARES docking and membrane fusion exocytosis and release of Rab into cytoplasm t-SNARES = syntaxin and SNAP25 v-SNARE = synaptobrevin (VAMP)
