VIRUS-CELL AND CELL-CELL FUSION
Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 1996▪ Abstract Significant progress has been made in elucidating the mechanisms of viral membrane fusion proteins; both those that function at low, as well as those that function at neutral, pH. For many viral fusion proteins evidence now suggests that a triggered conformational change that exposes a previously cryptic fusion peptide, along with a ...

Cell fusion and nuclear fusion in plants
Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2016Eukaryotic cells are surrounded by a plasma membrane and have a large nucleus containing the genomic DNA, which is enclosed by a nuclear envelope consisting of the outer and inner nuclear membranes. Although these membranes maintain the identity of cells, they sometimes fuse to each other, such as to produce a zygote during sexual reproduction or to ...

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1996
Members of the ADAM family (membrane proteins with a disintegrin and metalloprotease domain) have been implicated in several cell-interactive events, including cell-cell fusion. Recent evidence implicates three ADAMs, fertilin-alpha, fertilin-beta, and meltrin-alpha, in sperm-egg fusion and myoblast fusion.

WE report new findings on the chemically-induced fusion of hen erythrocytes and discuss possible ways in which the lipid and protein/glycoprotein components of membranes may behave during the process of membrane fusion. Our observations are consistent with Poste and Allison's1 idea that the aggregation of intrinsic membrane proteins is important in ...

THE mating of the gametes of Ulva mutabilis1 occurs essentially as described for Chlamydomonas2,3 When the gametes are mixed, they cluster and agglutinate with the tips of their flagella. Pairs consisting of a (+) and (−)-gamete leave the cluster, the cell bodies are brought together and fusion initiated.

Cell Biology![Figure][1] CREDIT: TSUKASA OIKAWA Osteoclasts are cells that promote bone remodeling, and their hyperactivity is linked to bone-destructive disorders, including osteoporosis. Activated osteoclast precursors develop columnar actin structures, known as podosomes, which are similar to the invadopodia observed in invasive cancer cells ...

Membrane Fusion in Eukaryotic Cells
Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2002▪ Abstract Membrane fusion is a fundamental biochemical reaction and the final step in all vesicular trafficking events. It is crucial for the transfer of proteins and lipids between different compartments and for exo- and endocytic traffic of signaling molecules and receptors.

Unveiling the Mechanisms of Cell-Cell Fusion
Science, 2005Cell-cell fusion is fundamental to the development and physiology of multicellular organisms, but little is known of its mechanistic underpinnings. Recent studies have revealed that many proteins involved in cell-cell fusion are also required for seemingly unrelated cellular processes such as phagocytosis, cell migration, axon growth, and ...

Methodologies in the Study of Cell–Cell Fusion
Methods, 1998The process of membrane fusion has been profitably studied by fusing cells that express fusion proteins on their surfaces to the membranes of target cells. Primary methods for monitoring the occurrence of fusion between cells are measurement of formation of heterokaryons, measurement of activation of reporter genes, measurement of transfer of lipidic ...
