COPII
brown: Protein transport protein Sec24A, Homo sapiens, Gene names: SEC24A blue: Vesicle-trafficking protein SEC22b, Mus musculus, Gene names: SEC22B, Sec22l1 pink: C-terminal sorting motif ILE-ILE, Homo sapiens The coat protein complex II, or COPII, is a group of proteins that facilitate the formation of vesicles to transport proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus or endoplasmic-reticulum–Golgi intermediate compartment. This process is termed anterograde transport, in contrast to the retrograde transport associated with the COPI complex. COPII is assembled in two parts: first an inner layer of Sar1, Sec23, and Sec24 forms; then the inner coat is surrounded by an outer lattice of Sec13 and Sec31.
