Fig. 6 — Model for receptor-mediated vacuolar sorting in plants. VSRs bind ligands in the early secretory pathway and transport them to the TGN/EE. There, the ligands are released from the VSR. Next, VSRs are recycled back to the cis-Golgi stack for further rounds of ligand transport. Post-TGN/EE transport of released vacuolar cargo ligands but also endocytosed proteins occurs independent of VSRs and travel to the lytic vacuole per default. Transport in this route is mediated by multivesicular bodies, the late endosomes (MVBs/LEs). They bud off the TGN/EE in a maturation-based step and confer cargo delivery by their ultimate fusion with the lytic vacuole (LV)
