The directed movement of substances from endosomes to lysosomes.

A cellular transport process in which transported substances are moved in membrane-bounded vesicles; transported substances are enclosed in the vesicle lumen or located in the vesicle membrane. The process begins with a step that directs a substance to the forming vesicle, and includes vesicle budding and coating. Vesicles are then targeted to, and fuse with, an acceptor membrane.

The process in which platelets bud from long processes extended by megakaryocytes.

Any process in which a melanosome is transported to, and/or maintained in, a specific location within the cell.

Any process in which a lysosome is transported to, and/or maintained in, a specific location.

Any process that modulates the pH of the lysosomal lumen, measured by the concentration of the hydrogen ion.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the developmental process that results in the deposition of coloring matter in an organism.

Removal of PI3P and Atg8/LC3 after the closure of the phagophore and before the fusion with the endosome/lysosome (e.g. mammals and insects) or vacuole (yeast), and that very likely destabilizes other Atg proteins and thus enables their efficient dissociation and recycling.

The lipid bilayer surrounding the lysosome and separating its contents from the cell cytoplasm.

A membrane-bounded organelle that receives incoming material from primary endocytic vesicles that have been generated by clathrin-dependent and clathrin-independent endocytosis; vesicles fuse with the early endosome to deliver cargo for sorting into recycling or degradation pathways.

A prelysosomal endocytic organelle differentiated from early endosomes by lower lumenal pH and different protein composition. Late endosomes are more spherical than early endosomes and are mostly juxtanuclear, being concentrated near the microtubule organizing center.

A double-membrane-bounded compartment that engulfs endogenous cellular material as well as invading microorganisms to target them to the lytic vacuole/lysosome for degradation as part of macroautophagy.

A multimeric protein complex that associates with the vacuolar membrane, late endosomal (multivesicular body) and lysosomal membranes. HOPS is a tethering complex involved in vesicle fusion.

Cytoplasm situated near, or occurring around, the nucleus.
