Vacuolar-sorting protein SNF8

UniProtKB accession:  Q12483

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Component of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport II (ESCRT-II), which is required for multivesicular body (MVB) formation and sorting of endosomal cargo proteins into MVBs. The MVB pathway mediates delivery of transmembrane proteins into the lumen of the lysosome for degradation. The ESCRT-II complex is probably involved in the recruitment of the ESCRT-III complex.
