GO:0005769 early endosome 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. 404
GO:0005770 late endosome 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. 245
GO:0010008 endosome membrane The lipid bilayer surrounding an endosome. 201
GO:0055037 recycling endosome Organelle consisting of networks of 60nm tubules organized around the microtubule organizing centre in some cell types. They transport molecules (e.g., receptors, transporters, lipids) derived from endosomes, the Golgi apparatus, or the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane. Transported molecules may be recycled for reuse, or may be newly synthesized. 132
GO:0055038 recycling endosome membrane The lipid bilayer surrounding a recycling endosome. 84
GO:0005771 multivesicular body A type of late endosome in which regions of the limiting endosomal membrane invaginate to form internal vesicles; membrane proteins that enter the internal vesicles are sequestered from the cytoplasm. 84
GO:0031901 early endosome membrane The lipid bilayer surrounding an early endosome. 73
GO:0031902 late endosome membrane The lipid bilayer surrounding a late endosome. 60
GO:0010009 external side of endosome membrane The external (cytoplasmic face) of an endosome membrane. 53
GO:0036021 endolysosome lumen The volume enclosed by the membrane of an endolysosome. An endolysosome is a transient hybrid organelle formed by fusion of a late endosome with a lysosome. 28
GO:0000815 ESCRT III complex An endosomal sorting complex required for transport. Consists of two soluble subcomplexes of highly charged coiled-coil proteins and is required for sorting and/or concentration of multivesicular body (MVB) cargoes. 20
GO:0000814 ESCRT II complex An endosomal sorting complex required for transport and functions downstream of ESCRT I complex. It consists of the class E vacuolar protein sorting (Vps) proteins and is required for the membrane recruitment of ESCRT III complex and binds to ubiquitinated cargoes. 5
GO:0032585 multivesicular body membrane The lipid bilayer surrounding a multivesicular body. 5
GO:0031905 early endosome lumen The volume enclosed by the membrane of an early endosome. 4
GO:0033263 CORVET complex A multimeric protein complex that acts as an endosomal tethering complex (CORVET = class C core vacuole/endosome tethering) by cooperating with Rab GTPases to capture endosomal vesicles and trap them prior to the action of SNAREs; the complex is involved in endo-lysosomal biogenesis and required for transport between endosome and vacuole. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae complex contains Vps8p, Vps3p, Pep5p, Vps16p, Pep3p, and Vps33p. 2
GO:0000813 ESCRT I complex An endosomal sorting complex required for transport. It consists of the class E vacuolar protein sorting (Vps) proteins and interacts with ubiquitinated cargoes. 2
