The late stage of COPI vesicle fission requires shorter forms of phosphatidic acid and diacylglycerol
Abstract
Phosphatidic acid and diacylglycerol are required for COPI vesicle fission. Here, the authors find that shorter forms of these lipids promote the late stage of COPI vesicle fission, further suggesting how lipid geometry contributes to membrane deformation in driving fission.
