Abstract
In eukaryotic cells, protein secretion and the transport of materials between membrane-bounded organelles require efficient and accurate delivery of carrier vesicles to their correct destination. Recent studies have revealed a large number of evolutionarily conserved proteins that may function in tethering vesicles to their target membrane in preparation for subsequent docking and fusion. Here, we review the proteins and protein complexes implicated in membrane tethering at various traffic stages.
