Preface
A NATO Advanced Study Institute, co-sponsored by FEBS and TUBITAK on
"Neurotransmitter Release and Uptake" was held in Ku~adasl, Turkey, from 19-30
April, 1996. The aim of the Institute was to bring together researchers working on
the presynaptic events in transcellular communication. Even though release and
uptake processes are very complementary and physically in very close proximity,
researchers are usually are very focused on either one of these two aspects. This
Institute provided a very good and unique opportunity to get exposure to both topics
and the resulting book brings together two major presynaptic events which control
trans synaptic regulation.
The topics discussed during the meeting ranged from ultrastructure and molecular
control mechanisms to pathophysiology of some diseased states. Neuronal as well as
non-neuronal mechanisms were covered. The course started with lectures on
neurotransmitter release and continued with those on uptake and transporters. The
present volume is arranged along the same lines: Part I is devoted to
neurotransmitter release and Part II to neurotransmitter uptake. The concluding
chapter by 1.1. Furedy emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration
and provides a link between the events in the presynaptic terminal and behavior.
I thank all the lecturers and students for their participation and contributions, and
the scientific and local organizing committee members for their invaluable support.
Dr. Tulga Kalaycl helped with the formatting of the book with dedication and
deserves special recognition: r am grateful for his excellent assistance.

Abstract
Neurotransmitter release and reuptake are essentiell steps in the life-cycle of
neurotransmitters at the synapse. Biochemical evidence indicates that the exocytotic
release process involves both evolutionarily conserved membrane proteins, the
SNAREs, as well as ubiquitous cytosolie fusion proteins. NSF and SNAPs. We have
tested the physiological role of both SNAREs and SNAPs at the squid giant synapse.
Our data are consistent with both SNAPs and SNAREs having post-docking
functions in neurotransmitter exocytosis Analysis of the gene structure.
developmental expression and pharmacology of the glycine transporter GlyTI and
the serotonin transporter SERT I indicates a high diversity and complex regulation of
mammalian neurotransmitter uptake systems.
I Introduction
The regulated release and efficient reuptake of neurotransmitters at presynaptic
nerve terminals provide the elemental} processes, upon .vhich fast synaptic
transmission is based. Their high speed and efficiency are crucial for intercellular
communication on a millisecond time-scale. and changes in either release or
reuptake rates are thought to underlie both physiological changes in synaptic efficacy
as well as pathological alterations in neurotransmissiol1. The understanding of both
processes at the molecular level therefore constitutes a major goal of our research
efforts.
