General Information
Term vesicle-mediated transport ID (Ontology) GO:0016192 (Gene Ontology)
Definition A cellular transport process in which transported substances are moved in membrane-bounded vesicles; transported substances are enclosed in the vesicle lumen or located in the vesicle membrane. The process begins with a step that directs a substance to the forming vesicle, and includes vesicle budding and coating. Vesicles are then targeted to, and fuse with, an acceptor membrane.[ ISBN:08789310662000 ]
Also Known As"vesicle transport" ; "vesicular transport"
