Coated Vesicles Definition:
Clathrin-coated vesicles formed by clathrin-dependent endocytosis.
Prescott's Microbiology 9th Edition by Joanne Willey, Linda Sherwood, Christopher J. Woolverton
Coated Vesicles Notes:
Clathrin coated vesicles (CCVs) are responsible for the vesicular transport of cargo (like proteins) between organelles within the cell. They basically operate in the post-Golgi network connecting the trans-Golgi network, lysosomes, endosomes and the cell membrane. These vesicles can be formed by self-assembly of the protein molecules
