molecular carrier activity [GO_0140104]
Directly binding to a specific ion or molecule and delivering it either to an acceptor molecule or to a specific location. Note that a carrier moves with its substrate/cargo, while a transporter does not move with the cargo, but facilitates the change in localization.
