Exocytosis is a highly conserved and essential process. Although numerous proteins are
involved throughout the exocytotic process, the defining membrane fusion step appears to …

Membrane fusion is essential for the basal functionality of eukaryotic cells. In physiological
conditions, fusion events are regulated by a wide range of specialized proteins, operating …

Membrane fusion is an essential process of biological cell function and is presumably
mediated by specific membrane proteins. Nevertheless, the final step is the rearrangement …
