Membrane fusion in organelle biogenesis.
Intracellular membrane fusion is a fascinating reaction that is crucial for cellular function. Several components of the membrane fusion machinery have been identified, although a precise understanding of the fusion mechanism is lacking. More recent studies are revealing novel proteins that regulate membrane fusion during organelle assembly.
