The N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor/fusion protein (NSF), is a hexameric ATPase recruited to SNARE-SNAP complexes. ATP hydrolysis by NSF, leads to conformational changes and dissociation of the SNARE complex. (Adapted from FBrf0141270).
Notes on Group
In many eukaryotes there is a single NSF gene, in D.mel there are two.
