Golgi vesicles are membrane-bound body that forms by "budding" from the Golgi apparatus. It contains proteins (glycoproteins), such as digestive enzymes, and migrates to the cell membrane.

Vesicles deliver the molecules to different areas
 

Types of Golgi vesicles and molecule transported

Exocytotic vesicles: Vesicles bud off and contents are immediately released to the extracellular space.

Secretory vesicles: The vesicles are stored and released only when signals are received.

Lysosomal vesicles:Vesicles contain proteins and ribosomes destined for degradation at the lysosome.

Antibody such as plasma B cells

Neuotransmitters

Enzymes such as proteases.
