VPS53

From English Wikipedia @ Freddythechick

An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox Vacuolar protein sorting 53 homolog (S. cerevisiae) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS53 gene.[1]

Function

This gene encodes a protein with sequence similarity to the yeast Vps53p protein. Vps53p is involved in retrograde vesicle trafficking in late Golgi. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

Mutations in VPS53 cause pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 2E, PCH2E ( also known as progressive cerebello-cerebral atrophy type 2, PCCA2).[2]
