  2. Multimodal transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimodal_transport

    Multimodal transport (also known as combined transport) is the transportation of goods under a single contract, but performed with at least two different modes of transport; the carrier is liable (in a legal sense) for the entire carriage, even though it is performed by several different modes of transport (by rail, sea and road, for example).

  3. Mediated transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediated_transport

    An example of an antiporter mediated transport protein is the sodium-calcium antiporter, a transport protein involved in keeping the cytoplasmic concentration of calcium ions in the cells, low. This transport protein is an antiporter system because it transports three sodium ions across the plasma membrane in exchange for a calcium ion, which ...

  4. Facilitated diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facilitated_diffusion

    Facilitated diffusion in cell membrane, showing ion channels and carrier proteins. Facilitated diffusion (also known as facilitated transport or passive-mediated transport) is the process of spontaneous passive transport (as opposed to active transport) of molecules or ions across a biological membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins. [1]

  5. Symporter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symporter

    Comparison of transport proteins A symporter is an integral membrane protein that is involved in the transport of two (or more) different molecules across the cell membrane in the same direction. The symporter works in the plasma membrane and molecules are transported across the cell membrane at the same time, and is, therefore, a type of ...

  6. Vesicular transport adaptor protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vesicular_transport...

    Vesicular transport adaptor proteins are proteins involved in forming complexes that function in the trafficking of molecules from one subcellular location to another. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] These complexes concentrate the correct cargo molecules in vesicles that bud or extrude off of one organelle and travel to another location, where the cargo is ...

  7. Exocytosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exocytosis

    Exocytosis (/ ˌ ɛ k s oʊ s aɪ ˈ t oʊ s ɪ s / [1] [2]) is a form of active transport and bulk transport in which a cell transports molecules (e.g., neurotransmitters and proteins) out of the cell (exo-+ cytosis). As an active transport mechanism, exocytosis requires the use of energy to transport material.

  8. Multimodal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimodal

    Multimodal learning, machine learning methods using multiple input modalities; Multimodal transport, a contract for delivery involving the use of multiple modes of goods transport; Multimodality, the use of several modes (media) in a single artifact; Multimodal logic modal logic that has more than one primitive modal operator

  9. Bulk movement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_movement

    In cell biology, bulk flow is the process by which proteins with a sorting signal [definition needed] travel to and from different cellular compartments. In other words, bulk transport is a type of transport which involves the transport of large amount of substance like lipid droplets and solid food particles across plasma membrane by utilising energy.
