Control systems for membrane fusion in the ancestral eukaryote; evolution of tethering complexes and SM proteins
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>In membrane trafficking, the mechanisms ensuring vesicle fusion specificity remain to be fully elucidated. Early models proposed that specificity was encoded entirely by SNARE proteins; more recent models include contributions from R...
