Title: | Molecular machinery mediating vesicle budding, docking and fusion |
Conference Title: | 11th International Symposium in Conjunction with Award of the International Prize for Biology "Dynamics of the Cell" |
Abstract: | A general machinery buds and fuses transport vesicles which connect intracellular compartments with each other and allow communication with the extracellular environment. Cytoplasmic coat proteins deform membranes to bud vesicles and interact directly or indirectly with cargo molecules. Compartment-specific SNAREs on vesicles and target membranes dock vesicles and provide a scaffolding for the general fusion machinery to initiate lipid bilayer fusion. |
