exert some of its excitatory actions on vesicle release through interactions with the presynaptic priming protein family Munc13 coded by human genes UNC13A and UNC13B. Binding of DAG to the C1 domain of UNC13 increases the fusion competence of synaptic vesicles resulting in potentiated release.

Diacylglycerol can be mimicked by the tumor-promoting compounds phorbol esters.
