Molecular motors power directed transport of cargoes within cells. Even if a
single motor is sufficient to transport a cargo, motors often cooperate in
small teams. We discuss the cooperative cargo transport by several motors
theoretically and explore some of its properties. In particular we emphasize
how motor teams can drag cargoes through a viscous environment.
