VPS53
VPS53 (Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 53 homolog) is a gene. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Prostate cancer. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Biology
Acts as a component of the GARP complex that is involved in retrograde transport from early and late endosomes to the trans-Golgi network (TGN). The GARP complex is required for the maintenance of the cycling of mannose 6-phosphate receptors between the TGN and endosomes, this cycling is necessary for proper lysosomal sorting of acid hydrolases such as CTSD. Acts as a component of the EARP complex that is involved in endocytic recycling. The EARP complex associates with Rab4-positive endosomes and promotes recycling of internalised transferrin receptor (TFRC) to the plasma membrane. Location: Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane; Endosome membrane; Recycling endosome (UniProt). Locus 17p13.3 (HGNC).
