Figure 4. Embeding the Vesicle Transport Network in the Cytoskeleton.

Figure 4

The connection from ER to Golgi, Golgi to plasma membrane and Plasma membrane to the lysosomes can be aligned with the radial structure of the microtubule network, which then has to be tri-partitioned. The challenge is the bridging of these partitions to fully connect the vesicle network. Note, that in this structure transcytosis requires changing the motor direction in the centre.
