VAMP4 (Vesicle-Associated Membrane Protein 4) is a member of the SNARE (Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor Attachment Protein Receptor) protein family, which plays a critical role in intracellular membrane fusion events. It is primarily involved in vesicle trafficking, particularly within the endosomal and trans-Golgi network (TGN) compartments. VAMP4 facilitates the docking and fusion of transport vesicles to target membranes by forming SNARE complexes with complementary Q-SNARE proteins (e.g., syntaxins and SNAP-25/23 homologs). Unlike its homologs VAMP1/2. which are associated with synaptic vesicle exocytosis, VAMP4 is enriched in secretory pathways regulating cargo sorting, lysosomal degradation, and receptor recycling.
Structurally, VAMP4 contains a conserved SNARE motif, a transmembrane domain, and a unique N-terminal regulatory domain that may modulate its interactions or localization. Studies suggest its involvement in adaptive responses to cellular stress, such as nutrient deprivation, where it directs vesicles to autophagosomes or lysosomes. Dysregulation of VAMP4 has been linked to neurological disorders (e.g., Alzheimer’s disease) and cancer progression, possibly due to altered protein trafficking or autophagy.
Recombinant VAMP4 proteins are engineered using expression systems (e.g., E. coli, mammalian cells) to study its biochemical properties, binding partners, or functional roles. These purified proteins enable in vitro assays, structural studies (e.g., crystallography), and drug discovery efforts targeting SNARE-mediated processes. Researchers also utilize tagged versions (e.g., GFP, His-tag) for cellular localization or pull-down experiments. Its role in specialized trafficking pathways makes VAMP4 a focal point for understanding diseases associated with secretory dysfunction.
