Data suggest MUNC18C is required for STX4-mediated invadopodium formation and tumor invasion of extracellular matrix; N-terminal STX4 fragment binds to MUNC18C and inhibits interactions of STX4 with synaptosome-associated protein 23 (SNAP23) and vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 (VAMP2). Fibrosarcoma/adenocarcinoma cell lines were used in these studies. (MUNC18C = syntaxin binding protein MUNC18C; STX4 = syntaxin 4) | Interaction of Munc18c and syntaxin4 facilitates invadopodium formation and extracellular matrix invasion of tumor cells.
