NSF is ubiquitously found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells.
It is a central component of the cellular machinery in the transfer of membrane vesicles from one membrane compartment to another.
During this process, SNARE proteins on two joining membranes form a tight complex.
This aids fusion of the vesicle with the target membrane.
It has been proposed that the role of NSF is to undo these SNARE complexes once membrane fusion has occurred, using the hydrolysis of ATP as an energy source, allowing the dissociated SNAREs to be recycled for reuse in further rounds of membrane fusion.
This proposal remains controversial, however.
Recent work indicates that the ATPase function of NSF is necessary does not function in recycling of vesicles but rather functions in the act of fusing vesicles with the plasma membrane.
