Abstract
Kinetics of Ca
2+-induced fusion of phosphatidylserine vesicles is studiied for lipid concentrations varying from 1 μM to 100 μM. Fusion is monitored by mixing of aqueous vesicle contents and by explicitly accounting for leakage. The analysis provides separately rates of aggregation and fusion. The rate of fusion per se decreases steeply with vesicle size.
