GONUTS has been updated to MW1.31 Most things seem to be working but be sure to report problems.
Category:GO:0016081 ! synaptic vesicle docking
name: synaptic vesicle docking
namespace: biological_process
def: "The initial (indirect) attachment of a synaptic vesicle membrane to the presynaptic active zone membrane, mediated by proteins protruding from the membrane and proteins of the presynaptic active zone cytoplasmic component. Synaptic vesicle tethering is the first step in this process." [PMID:15217342]
comment: Although this process can occur outside of synaptic transmission, by convention we treat it as a part of synaptic transmission (dos, pvn, fk synapse project 2015).
