Abstract

AbstractAn artificial fusion system was developed in which triazole ceramide was generated at the surface of a liposome membrane through the action of Cu+. The stressed vesicle underwent membrane fusion. The results suggest that curvature inversion alone might be a sufficient driving force for membrane fusion. In addition, our fusion system is cytocompatible and has potential applications in biomedical research.
