<SNAP-25> is a <SNARE protein> that contributes two helices to the neuronal fusion complex, partnering with <syntaxin> and <synaptobrevin>. <Lipid> attachment anchors <SNAP-25> to membranes despite its lack of a conventional membrane-spanning helix. Assembly helps couple recognition of a secretory carrier to <membrane fusion>. Its two helical contributions explain why a four-helix <SNARE complex> need not contain four separate <protein> chains. <UniProtKB by the UniProt Consortium>[P60880, Function, Catalytic activity and Subunit structure]{ref}
