SNARE chaperone Sly1 directly mediates close-range vesicle tethering

SM protein Sly1 and a SNARE Habc domain promote membrane fusion through multiple mechanisms

Septin filaments interact with AP-3 and are required for trafficking via the AP-3 pathway in budding yeast

Remodeling of yeast vacuole membrane lipidomes from the log (one phase) to stationary stage (two phases)

Reversible, large-scale, liquid-liquid phase separation in living yeast membranes

Yeast cells actively tune their membranes to phase separate at temperatures that scale linearly with growth temperatures

The Role of Growth Temperature and Lipid Composition in Phase Separation of Yeast Vacuole Membranes

Genetically encoded multimode reporter of adaptor complex 3 traffic in budding yeast
