The Presence of Clathrin Mediates Vesicular Transport

Question

The presence of clathrin mediates vesicular transport:
A)from ER to cis-Golgi.
B)trans-Golgi to endosome.
C)nuclear membrane to endosome.
D)plasma membrane to trans-Golgi.

Accepted Answer

Clathrin-coated vesicles are involved in the transport of cargo from the trans-Golgi network to endosomes. This process is mediated by the presence of clathrin, a protein that forms a lattice around the vesicle membrane and helps to shape it. Clathrin-coated vesicles are also involved in endocytosis, which involves the uptake of material from the cell surface into the cell.
