Ca2+-induced fusion of sulfatide-containing phosphatidylethanolamine small unilamellar vesicles

The fusogenic properties of sulfatide-containing 1,2-dioleoyl-3-sn-phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) small unilamellar vesicles (SUVs) in the presence of CaCl2 were studied by mixing membrane lipids based on an assay of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Fusion of the vesicles was also con...
