Sea urchin egg preparations as systems for the study of calcium-triggered exocytosis.

J Zimmerberg1, J R Coorssen, S S Vogel, P S Blank.   

Abstract

This paper reviews recent work in our laboratory on the mechanism of calcium-triggered exocytosis. Upon echinoderm egg fertilization, cortical secretory vesicle exocytosis is massive and synchronous. By combining physiological and molecular analyses with a variety of purified membrane isolates containing secretory vesicles that fuse to the plasma membrane or each other, we have characterized the final steps of this calcium-triggered exocytosis. Our kinetic analysis led to a functional definition of the fusion complex whose activation by calcium follows Poisson statistics. The properties of this complex are compared with the properties of the heterotrimeric SNARE protein complex that is present in the cortical vesicle system. Our data do not support the hypothesis that this particular heterotrimeric complex is by itself the biological fusogen.
