Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable several functions, including protein-macromolecule adaptor activity; syntaxin binding activity; and ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of intracellular estrogen receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of early endosome to late endosome transport; and vesicle organization. Predicted to act upstream of or within autophagy and protein transport. Located in actin filament and early endosome. Part of AP-3 adaptor complex and CORVET complex. Is active in presynaptic active zone. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dystonia and hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 12. Orthologous to human VPS11 (VPS11 core subunit of CORVET and HOPS complexes).
