title: Transport vesicles: coats of many colours.
abstract: Clathrin-coated vesicles transport proteins and membranes between intracellular compartments. Adaptor molecules determine vesicle specificity; recently, a third type of adaptor protein, AP3, has been identified and implicated in the biogenesis of endosomal and lysosome-related organelles.
