Background: Bassoon, BSN (Zinc-finger protein ) is thought to be involved in the organization of the cytomatrix at the nerve terminals active zone (CAZ) which regulates neurotransmitter release. Seems to act through binding to ERC2/CAST1. Essential in regulated neurotransmitter release from a subset of brain glutamatergic synapses (By similarity). Involved in the formation of the retinal photoreceptor ribbon synapses. Interacts with ERC2/CAST1, RIMS1 and UNC13A. Part of a complex consisting of ERC2, RIMS1 and BSN (By similarity). Subcellular located in Cytoplasmic, localized to the active zone of presynaptic density. It expressed in brain and retina.
