title: Cargo carriers from the Golgi to the cell surface.
abstract: In this issue, Malhotra and colleagues use biochemical approaches to identify a new class of secretory cargo carriers (CARTS) that do not contain the larger cargoes, collagen or Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)-G glycoprotein. CARTS appear to be basolateral membrane-directed carriers that use myosin for their motility but not for their formation.
