Fusion of secretory vesicles isolated from rat liver [PDF]
, 1978 Secretory vesicles isolated from rat liver were found to fuse after exposure to Ca2+. Vescle fusion is characterized by the occurrence of twinned vesicles with a continuous cleavage plane between two vesicles in freeze-fracture electron microscopy.

Illuminating membrane fusion [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006 Membrane fusion is a central event for a wide variety of biological processes, such as transport of cargo through the secretory and endocytic pathways, organelle inheritance, neurotransmission, and viral entry into host cells, among others. Hence, understanding the mechanism(s) of physiological membrane fusion is a subject of wide biological interest ...

Coassembly of Mgm1 isoforms requires cardiolipin and mediates mitochondrial inner membrane fusion [PDF]
, 2009 Two dynamin-related protein (DRP) families are essential for fusion of the outer and inner mitochondrial membranes, Fzo1 (yeast)/Mfn1/Mfn2 (mammals) and Mgm1 (yeast)/Opa1 (mammals), respectively.

Structure and function of bacterial dynamin-like proteins [PDF]
, 2012 Membrane dynamics are essential for numerous cellular processes in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. In eukaryotic cells, membrane fusion and fission are often catalyzed by large GTPases of the dynamin protein family. These proteins couple GTP hydrolysis

Journal of General Virology, 2006 Flavivirus membrane fusion is mediated by a class II viral fusion protein, the major envelope protein E, and the fusion process is extremely fast and efficient. Understanding of the underlying mechanisms has been advanced significantly by the determination of E protein structures in their pre- and post-fusion conformations and by the elucidation of the

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

Spatial regulation of membrane fusion controlled by modification of phosphoinositides. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Membrane fusion plays a central role in many cell processes from vesicular transport to nuclear envelope reconstitution at mitosis but the mechanisms that underlie fusion of natural membranes are not well understood.
