Muscle cell fusion is a multistep process where the final step of reaction drives progression beyond early hemifusion events to complete fusion. This requires activity muscle-specific fusogen Myomerger, single-pass transmembrane protein containing 84 amino acids with an ectodomain that includes two α-helices. Previous studies have demonstrated Myomerger acts by destabilizing membranes through generation elastic stresses in outer leaflet plasma membrane. An obvious question how such might be...
