how are the coat proteins different from docking markers

Solution

Coat proteins -

Coat proteins allow the selective transfer of macro maolecules from one membrane enclosed compartment to another by concentrating molecules into specialised membrane patches and then deforming these patches into small coated vesicles. Recent findings indicate that coat proteins might also participate in differentiation of membrane domain within organelles and large transport carriers , aswell as in the association of the carriers with the cytoskeleton and with acceptor organelles.

Coat protein capsule I (COP I) coat involved in traffic between GC and ER.

Docking markers-

Dockimg markers change the orientation of one molecule to a second when bound to each other to form a stable complex in a enzyme -substrate reactions.

Docking is useful for predicting both the strength and type of signal produced.
