SNARE-mediated homotypic ER fusion requires DSL1.
Title: ER-associated retrograde SNAREs and the Dsl1 complex mediate an alternative, Sey1p-independent homotypic ER fusion pathway.

a direct role of the Dsl1 complex, in particular Tip20p, in the formation and stabilization of ER SNARE complexes.
Title: The Dsl1 tethering complex actively participates in soluble NSF (N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor) attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex assembly at the endoplasmic reticulum in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

subunits of the Dsl1 complex (Dsl1, Dsl3, and Tip20), as well as the SNAREs Ufe1 and Sec20, are ER-resident proteins that do not seem to move into COPII vesicles.
Title: The Dsl1 protein tethering complex is a resident endoplasmic reticulum complex, which interacts with five soluble NSF (N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor) attachment protein receptors (SNAREs): implications for fusion and fusion regulation.

Studies indicate that Dsl1 tethering complex seems to be designed to expose an unstructured domain of Dsl1p at its top, which is required to capture vesicles.
Title: Dsl1p/Zw10: common mechanisms behind tethering vesicles and microtubules.

Study determined the structure of the Dsl1 complex, revealing a tower containing at its base the binding sites for two endoplasmic reticulum SNAREs and at its tip a flexible lasso for capturing vesicles.
Title: A structure-based mechanism for vesicle capture by the multisubunit tethering complex Dsl1.
