AmiGO 2: Term Details for "vesicle targeting" (GO:0006903)

Accession: GO:0006903
Name: vesicle targeting
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The process in which vesicles are directed to specific destination membranes. Targeting involves coordinated interactions among cytoskeletal elements (microtubules or actin filaments), motor proteins, molecules at the vesicle membrane and target membrane surfaces, and vesicle cargo.
