Microtubule-based transport and intra-cellular trafficking pathways.
Many intracellular trafficking pathways involve active and directed transport along the microtubule cytoskeleton. Microtubule-dependent trafficking in mammalian cells includes: (a,b,c) ER-to-Golgi transport, (d) TGN-to-ER transport and (e) lysosomal, (f,g) endosomal and (h) mitochondrial motility
