So proud of this outstanding team and our new insights into the mechanism of exocyst function in membrane fusion!
Mary Munson, PhD, is a co-corresponding author on a study highlighting the importance of the exocyst protein complex in cell growth, division and communication: direc.to/m2Ay
Tae-Young Yoon, PhD, is a collaborator on the @naturesmb.bsky.social study. @marymunson4.bsky.social
