This gives NSF a putative role in delivery and expression of AMPA receptors at the synapse. [11] NSF was discovered by James Rothman and colleagues in 1987 while at Stanford University; they identified NSF after observing that a cytoplasmic factor, required for membrane fusions, was inactivated by treatment with N-ethylmaleimide. This assay ...
The energy provided by NSF is transferred throughout the SNARE complex and SNAP, allowing the proteins to untangle, and recycled for future fusion events. Mammals have three SNAP genes: α-SNAP , β-SNAP , and γ-SNAP . α- and γ-SNAP are expressed throughout the body, while β-SNAP is specific to the brain.
The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) was established by the National Science Foundation Act of 1950. [7] Its stated mission is "to promote the progress of science, to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare, and to secure the national defense."

The National Science Foundation Network (NSFNET) was a program of coordinated, evolving projects sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) from 1985 to 1995 to promote advanced research and education networking in the United States. [1]
Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis is a rare syndrome that involves fibrosis of the skin, joints, eyes, and internal organs. NSF is caused by exposure to gadolinium in gadolinium-based MRI contrast agents (GBCAs) in patients with impaired kidney function.
NSF (an initialism for National Sanitation Foundation) is a public health organization [1] headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan [2] that tests and certifies foods, water, and consumer products. [1] It also facilitates the development of standards for these products, [ 1 ] labeling products it has certified to meet these standards with the NSF mark.
