Nanodisc-cell fusion: control of fusion pore nucleation and lifetimes by SNARE protein transmembrane domains
The initial, nanometer-sized connection between the plasma membrane and a hormone- or neurotransmitter-filled vesicle –the fusion pore– can flicker open and closed repeatedly before dilating or resealing irreversibly. Pore dynamics determine release and vesicle recycling kinetics, but pore propertie...
