The directed movement of substances into, out of or within a vacuole. The process of directing proteins towards the vacuole using signals contained within the protein, occurring as part of autophagy, the process by which cells digest parts of their own cytoplasm. The process of directing proteins towards the lysosome using signals contained within the protein. The process of directing proteins towards the vacuole, usually using signals contained within the protein. The directed movement of substances within a cell. The process of directing proteins towards the vacuole using signals contained within the protein, occurring during protein catabolism via the multivesicular body (MVB) pathway. The process of targeting specific proteins to particular membrane-bounded subcellular organelles. Usually requires an organelle specific protein sequence motif. A constitutive biosynthetic process that occurs under nutrient-rich conditions, in which two resident vacuolar hydrolases, aminopeptidase I and alpha-mannosidase, are sequestered into vesicles; these vesicles are transported to, and then fuse with, the vacuole. This pathway is mostly observed in yeast. The directed movement of proteins in a cell, including the movement of proteins between specific compartments or structures within a cell, such as organelles of a eukaryotic cell.
