yeast are good model organisms for ______ because, why?
traffic as secretory pathway and its molecular components are similar in all eukaryotes
is there vesicular transport in prokaryotes?
no
the cis face of the golgi ______ from the ER while the trans face of the golgi _______ to the plasma membrane
inputs, outputs
vessicle budding is important for which pathways?
secretory and endocytic pathways
vesicle budding is initiated by?
recruitment of GTP binding proteins to a patch of a donor
vesicle budding is driven by?
