Vesicle transport

Vesicle transport is a process within cells where tiny sacs called vesicles move materials, such as proteins or nutrients, from one part of the cell to another. These vesicles form when the cell wraps around substances needing transport, then travel along guiding structures called cytoskeletons using motor proteins. This system ensures efficient and targeted delivery of essential molecules, maintaining cellular functions and communication. Think of vesicle transport as a well-organized internal postal service, delivering packages to specific destinations within the cell to keep it healthy and operational.
