The crystal structure of Complexin bound to a pre-fusion SNAREpin mimetic shows that the accessory helix extends away from the SNAREpin in an “open” conformation, binding another SNAREpin, and inhibiting its assembly to clamp fusion. In contrast, the accessory helix in the post-fusion complex parallels the SNARE complex in a “closed” conformation. Here we use targeted mutations, FRET spectroscopy, and a functional assay that reconstitutes Ca2+-triggered exocytosis to show that the conformational switch from open to closed in Complexin is needed for Synaptotagmin-Ca2+ to trigger fusion. Triggering fusion requires the zippering of three key Asp residues in the “switch” region (64–68) of v-SNARE. Conformational switching in Complexin is integral to clamp release and is likely triggered when its accessory helix is released from its trans-binding to the neighboring SNAREpin, allowing the v-SNARE to complete zippering and open a fusion pore.
