Mate and fuse: how yeast cells do it [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2013
Many cells are able to orient themselves in a non-uniform environment by responding to localized cues. This leads to a polarized cellular response, where the cell can either grow or move towards the cue source.

Functional analysis of the Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus Gc glycoprotein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The virion glycoproteins Gn and Gc of Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus (family Bunyaviridae) are encoded by the M RNA genome segment and have roles in both viral attachment and membrane fusion.

Cell Fusion in Human Cancer: The Dark Matter Hypothesis

open access: yesCells, 2019
Current strategies to determine tumor × normal (TN)-hybrid cells among human cancer cells include the detection of hematopoietic markers and other mesodermal markers on tumor cells or the presence of donor DNA in cancer samples from patients who had ...

Disruption of fusion results in mitochondrial heterogeneity and dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Mitochondria undergo continual cycles of fusion and fission, and the balance of these opposing processes regulates mitochondrial morphology. Paradoxically, cells invest many resources to maintain tubular mitochondrial morphology, when reducing both ...

Anoctamin 5/TMEM16E facilitates muscle precursor cell fusion

open access: yesThe Journal of General Physiology, 2018
Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2L (LGMD2L) is a myopathy arising from mutations in ANO5; however, information about the contribution of ANO5 to muscle physiology is lacking. To explain the role of ANO5 in LGMD2L, we previously hypothesized that ANO5-

The First Family of Cell-Cell Fusion [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2007
Our understanding of the developmentally critical process of cell-cell fusion has been greatly advanced by the identification of the first family of cell-cell fusion proteins. Together, the two founding members of the FF family execute the majority of cell-cell fusion events in C. elegans.

Emerging functions of mammalian mitochondrial fusion and fission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Mitochondria provide a myriad of services to the cell, including energy production, calcium buffering and regulation of apoptosis. How these diverse functions are coordinated among the hundreds of mitochondria in a given cell is largely unknown, but is ...

Tumor Microenvironment and Cell Fusion

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2019
Cell fusion is a highly regulated biological process that occurs under both physiological and pathological conditions. The cellular and extracellular environment is critical for the induction of the cell–cell fusion.

Immunisation Using Novel DNA Vaccine Encoding Virus Membrane Fusion Complex and Chemokine Genes Shows High Protection from HSV-2

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 infections cause high unmet disease burdens worldwide. Mainly HSV-2 causes persistent sexually transmitted disease, fatal neonatal disease and increased transmission of HIV/AIDS.

Constructive role of dissipation for driven coupled bosonic modes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We describe four cases of childhood B-cell progenitor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (BCP-ALL) and one of T-cell (T-ALL) with unexpected numbers of interphase signals for ETV6 with an ETV6-RUNX1 fusion probe.
