Can similar conformational transitions occur in vivo, for example, during exocytotic swelling of secretory granules or in a stretched fibronectin matrix? |
Fixation was used in this experiment since it allows rosette particles to partition into the plasmatic fracture face, like the other particles of the exocytotic site. |
In addition to factors regulating the fusion of exocytotic vesicles with the plasma membrane, postfusion events have attracted broad scientific interest. |
Selective regional loss of exocytotic presynaptic vesicle proteins in Alzheimer's disease brains. |
Release of neurotransmitters and hormones from cells involves exocytotic fusion of secretory vesicles with the plasma membrane. |
Hormones are released from neuroendocrine cells by passing through an exocytotic pore that forms after vesicle and plasma membrane fusion. |
