Question

How do v-SNAREs and t-SNAREs contribute to vesicle fusion specificity?

Accepted Answer

v-SNAREs on vesicles match with specific t-SNAREs on target membranes to ensure correct fusion.

Answer

t-SNAREs recruit GTPases to regulate coat protein assembly.

Answer

t-SNAREs hydrolyze ATP to provide energy for vesicle fusion.

Answer

v-SNAREs bind to clathrin to initiate vesicle budding.
