Fusion of a synaptic vesicle with the membrane of an endosome. Steps required to form an initiated synaptic vesicle into a fully formed and transmissible synaptic vesicle. Evagination of the presynaptic membrane, resulting in the formation of a new synaptic vesicle. The directed movement of substances in synaptic membrane-bounded vesicles within the neuron along the cytoskeleton either toward or away from the neuronal cell body. Invagination of the axonal plasma membrane creating a membrane-bounded vesicle. Without this process the presynaptic terminal would swell up due to fusion of vesicle membranes during neurotransmitter release. The vesicles created may subsequently be used for neurotransmitter storage/release. The directed movement of substances into, out of or within a cell by a cellular process that begins with the formation of membrane-bounded vesicles in which the transported substances are enclosed or located in the vesicle membrane. Vesicles are then targeted to, and fuse with, an acceptor membrane. The removal of the protein coat on a synaptic vesicle. The infolding of a membrane, resulting in formation of a vesicle. A type of vesicle-mediated transport in which cells take up external materials or membrane constituents by the invagination of small region of the plasma membrane to form a new membrane-bounded vesicle.
