Regulated secretion in neurons and endocrine cells is mediated by a specialized version of SNARE-mediated membrane fusion (reviewed in [1]).

It is thought that complex formation between SNARE proteins from opposing membranes provide the energy that drives membrane fusion (reviewed in [ 1- 4], Fig. 1A & 1B).
