New insights into membrane trafficking regulated by ER fusion protein

Prof. HU Junjie from the Institute of Biophysics and his collaborators reported that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) fusogen atlastin (ATL) was involved in regulating cargo mobility and COPII formation in the ER. Their finding provides important insight into the physiological role of the tubular ER network.
