Initiation and Dynamics of Hemifusion in Lipid Bilayers [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2003
One approach to the understanding of fusion in cells and model membranes involves stalk formation and expansion of the hemifusion diaphragm. We predict theoretically the initiation of hemifusion by stalk expansion and the dynamics of mesoscopic ...

Hemifusion in Synaptic Vesicle Cycle [PDF]

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2017
In the neuron, early neurotransmitters are released through the fusion pore prior to the complete vesicle fusion. It has been thought that the fusion pore is a gap junction-like structure made of transmembrane domains (TMDs) of soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive-factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) proteins. However, evidence has accumulated that

Alpha‐Synuclein Amyloid Oligomers Act as Multivalent Nanoparticles to Cause Hemifusion in Negatively Charged Vesicles [PDF]

Small, 2015
Multivalent membrane binding sites on the α-synuclein oligomer result in clustering of vesicles and hemifusion of negatively charged model membranes.
