Abstract
Intracellular transfers between membrane-bound compartments occur through vesicles that bud from a donor compartment to fuse subsequently with an acceptor membrane. We report that the membrane that delimits COP I or COP II-coated buds/vesicles from the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex has a thinner interleaflet clear space as compared with the surrounding, noncoated parental membrane. This change is compatible with a compositional change of the membrane bilayer during the budding process.
