Concept explainers
To explain: Whether both v-SNAREs and t- SNAREs are essential for the homotypic fusion.
Introduction: There are many protein molecules involved in the fusion of vesicle. Membrane fusion is facilitated by bringing two lipid bilayer of membrane in close proximity, so that the lipid can flow from one bilayer to another. The SNARE proteins catalyze the membrane fusion in vesicle transport. The transmembrane proteins exist as complementary sets with v-SNAREs usually found on vesicle membranes and t- SNAREs usually found in target membranes.
To explain: Whether the data suggest for the requirements for v-SNAREs and t- SNAREs in the fusion of vacuolar vesicles.
