'''Intersectin''' (ITSN) is an endocytic multidomain scaffold protein in neurons and is important regulator of synaptic vescicles replenishment at hippocampal synapses. The replenishment is needed in order to sustain neurotransmission during periods of elevated activity. ITSN interacts with synapsin I through its SH3 domains<ref>PMID:29229830 | '''Intersectin''' (ITSN) is an endocytic multidomain scaffold protein in neurons and is important regulator of synaptic vescicles replenishment at hippocampal synapses.
