Document Summary

Transport vesicles carry soluble proteins in their lumens and membrane proteins between compartments, the vesicle usually go from er-> golgi -> other organelles or the plasma membrane or from the plasma membrane to endosomes to lysosomes. Vesicle budding is driven by the formation of a protein coat (endocytosis) The clathrin breaks off after the vesicle departs. Adaptins on the clathrin capture specific cargo molecules by trapping the receptors that bind to them. Vesicle docking depends on tethers and snares. After budding from a membrane, transport vesicles need to find the correct destinations, they dock with specific organelles. Most proteins are covalently modified in the er (ex. As growing peptide enters er, carbohydrate groups attaches to amino acid groups of asparagine (asn) side chains (n-linked glycosylation) Only properly folded proteins are allowed to leave the er, for example, hydrophobic groups exposed or not, the proteins will get assistance from chaperone proteins, if it is not fixed the cell will destroy it.
