Sexual reproduction involves a cascade of molecular interactions between the sperm and the egg culminating in cell–cell fusion . Vital steps mediating fertilization include chemoattraction ...
Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) are a family of small conserved eukaryotic proteins that mediate membrane fusion between organelles and with the plasma ...
the molecular mechanisms underlying fusion and fission events, it is generally assumed that proteins are involved. The proteins not only ensure specificity and regulation of these events, but also generate ...
the roles of other cations, lipid phase transitions, long chain fatty acids and other fusogenic molecules. Finally, we have presented a simple molecular model for the mechanism of lipid membrane fusion ...
proteins and the calcium sensor synaptotagmin-1. We propose a mechanism where the lipid membrane is intimately involved in coupling calcium sensing to release. We demonstrate that fusion of dense core ...

). Early studies on this protein revealed that HA‐ mediated fusion involves the insertion of the HA2 N‐terminal segment into the host membrane and that this segment, known as the fusion peptide, is a key ...
