Molecular Mechanisms Controlling Synaptic Vesicle Fusion
SNARE proteins are the engines that drive membrane fusion throughout the cell. They provide this energy by zippering up into a parallel four helix bundle in a thermodynamically favored process. Because the zippering of SNAREs is spontaneous, fusion events occur immediately upon a vesicle interactin...
