Vesicular Transport in Eukaryotic Cells

  • 4679 Accesses

Abstract

Transport from the ER through Golgi-apparatus to plasma membrane, secretory vesicles, or lysosomes occurs in specialised vesicles. Proteins in the plasma membrane, some with bound ligand, are recycled in clathrin-coated vesicles, which after uncoating fuse with the endosome. From there proteins can return to the plasma membrane or move on to the lysosome for degradation.
