There was colocalization of Kv2.1 and Kv2.2 with endogenous VAPB at ER-PM junctions in mouse brain neurons. Expression of Kv2.1 recruits VAPB to ER-PM junctions.The domains of VAPs and Kv2.1 necessary and sufficient for their association at ER-PM junctions were identified. | Identification of VAPA and VAPB as Kv2 Channel-Interacting Proteins Defining Endoplasmic Reticulum-Plasma Membrane Junctions in Mammalian Brain Neurons.

Peroxisomal (PO) long range movements were largely diminished in response to human ACBD5 overexpression in primary mouse hippocampal neurons. PO localization significantly changed in ACBD5-transfected neurons, PO numbers in neurites increased, while PO density in the soma was decreased. Alterations in PO motility and distribution in the hippocampal neurons were independent of the interaction between ACBD5 and mouse Vapb. | Intracellular redistribution of neuronal peroxisomes in response to ACBD5 expression.

ignificant alterations of the vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated protein B (VAPB) and its downstream pathways such as mitochondrial calcium uptake and autophagy were detected in dominant GARS mutations.
