Fusion pore stability of peptidergic vesiclesJorgačevski, Jernej ...It is believed that in regulated exocytosis the vesicle membrane fuses with the plasma membrane in response to a physiological stimulus. However, in the absence of stimulation, repetitive transient ... fusion events are also observed, reflecting a stable state. The mechanisms by which the initial fusion pore attains stability are poorly understood. We modelled energetic stability of the fusion pore by taking into account the anisotropic, intrinsic shape of themembrane constituents and their in-plane ordering in the local curvature ofthe membrane. We used cell-attached membrane capacitance techniques to monitor the appearance and conductance of single fusion pore events in cultured rat lactotrophs. The results revealed a bell-shaped distribution of the fusion pore conductance with a modal value of 25 pS. The experimentally observed increase of the fusion pore stability with decreasing fusion pore radius agrees well with the theoretical predictions. Moreover, the results revealed a correlation between the amplitude of transient capacitance increases and the fusion pore conductance, indicating that larger vesicles mayattain a stable fusion pore with larger fusion pore diameters.Source: Molecular membrane biology. - ISSN 0968-7688 (Letn. 27, št. 2/3, 2010, str. 65-80)Type of material - article, component partPublish date - 2010Language - englishCOBISS.SI-ID - 26735321
