While nuclear traffic uses gated transport, transport into the endoplasmic reticulum (and back) and into mitochondria, plastids, and peroxisomes is carried out using transmembrane translocators. Finally, proteins can move between the various membrane-enclosed organelles of the intracellular membrane system, as well as to and from the plasma membrane, by vesicular transport.
