En route to dynamic life processes by SNARE-mediated fusion of polymer and hybrid membranes

En route to dynamic life processes by SNARE-mediated fusion of polymer and hybrid membranes

A variety of artificial cells springs from the functionalization of liposomes with proteins but these models suffer from low durability without repair and replenishment mechanisms. Here, the authors show that synthetic amphiphile membranes undergo SNARE-mediated fusion, and determine bending rigidit...
