Mitofusins and OPA1 Mediate Sequential Steps in Mitochondrial Membrane Fusion [PDF]
Mitochondrial fusion requires the coordinated fusion of the outer and inner membranes. Three large GTPases—OPA1 and the mitofusins Mfn1 and Mfn2—are essential for the fusion of mammalian mitochondria.

Synaptic proteins promote calcium-triggered fast transition from point contact to full fusion. [PDF]
The molecular underpinnings of synaptic vesicle fusion for fast neurotransmitter release are still unclear. Here, we used a single vesicle-vesicle system with reconstituted SNARE and synaptotagmin-1 proteoliposomes to decipher the temporal sequence of ...

Treatment of competition between complete fusion and quasifission in collisions of heavy nuclei [PDF]
A model of competition between complete fusion and quasifission channels in fusion of two massive nuclei is extended to include the influence of dissipative effects on the dynamics of nuclear fusion.

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

Fusion versus Breakup: Observation of Large Fusion Suppression for ^9Be + ^{208}Pb [PDF]
Complete fusion excitation functions for $^{9}$Be + $^{208}$Pb have been measured to high precision at near barrier energies. The experimental fusion barrier distribution extracted from these data allows reliable prediction of the expected complete ...

Fusion Rules for Extended Current Algebras [PDF]
The initial classification of fusion rules have shown that rational conformal field theory is very limited. In this paper we study the fusion rules of extend ed current algebras. Explicit formulas are given for the S matrix and the fusion rules, based on

N-point and higher-genus osp(1|2) fusion [PDF]
We study affine osp(1|2) fusion, the fusion in osp(1|2) conformal field theory, for example. Higher-point and higher-genus fusion is discussed. The fusion multiplicities are characterized as discretized volumes of certain convex polytopes, and are ...

KSTAR ECH System Development Progress [PDF]
The KSTAR ECH system has been upgraded to ensure steady-state advanced operation of KSTAR. The planned ECHs include a total of six 1 MW, 300 s ECH systems, of which four 105/140 GHz dual frequency systems have been commissioned and are being used in ...

Development of high-performance long-pulse discharge in KSTAR
High-performance long-pulse plasma operation is essential for producing economically viable fusion energy in tokamak devices. To achieve such discharges in KSTAR, firstly, the rapid increase in the temperature of plasma-facing components was mitigated ...

Selective cell fusion is a natural part of development. It is found in sexually reproducing organisms that require fertilization to propagate and in muscles, placenta, bones, lens of the eye and stem cells. Cell fusion is particularly important in the development of C. elegans: in addition to 300 sperm and oocytes that fuse during fertilization, 300 of
