Intermediary structures during membrane fusion as observed by cryo-electron microscopy.

P M Frederik1, M C Stuart, A J Verkleij.   

Abstract

Lipidic phases, containing 'lipidic particles' (dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine/cholesterol/dioleoylphosphatidylcho lin e and cardiolipin/dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine in the presence of Ca2+) have been investigated by preparing thin films from a suspension of sonicated vesicles. These thin films were vitrified and observed 'directly' by cryo-electron microscopy in their hydrated form. The thin films show various fusion products and fusion intermediates such as lipidic particles.
