General Information
Term vesicle tethering involved in exocytosis ID (Ontology) GO:0090522 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The initial, indirect interaction between a secretory vesicle membrane and a site of exocytosis in the plasma membrane. This interaction is mediated by tethering factors (or complexes), which interact with both membranes. Interaction can occur via direct binding to membrane phospholipids or membrane proteins, or via binding to vesicle coat proteins. This process is distinct from and prior to docking and fusion.[ PubMed:10559876 PubMed:17052174 PubMed:17488620 PubMed:22420621 PubMed:27243008 ]
