UniProt functional annotation for P25604

UniProt code: P25604.

Organism: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c) (Baker's yeast).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Saccharomycotina; Saccharomycetes; Saccharomycetales; Saccharomycetaceae; Saccharomyces.
 
Function: Component of the ESCRT-I complex, a regulator of vesicular trafficking process. Binds to ubiquitinated cargo proteins and is required for the sorting of endocytic ubiquitinated cargos into multivesicular bodies (MVBs). Mediates the association to the ESCRT-0 complex. Required for vacuolar targeting of temperature-sensitive plasma membrane proteins STE2 and CAN1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10207082, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11208108, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11511343}.
 
Subunit: Component of the ESCRT-I complex (endosomal sorting complex required for transport I) which consists of STP22, VPS28, SRN2 and MVB12 in a 1:1:1:1 stoichiometry. Interacts with HSE1 and VPS27. Interacts with MVB12 and SRN2. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11511343, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12900393, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15086794, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16615893, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16615894, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17442384}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm. Endosome. Late endosome membrane {ECO:0000305}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
Domain: The UEV domain is required for the interaction of the complex with ubiquitin.
Miscellaneous: Present with 1360 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}.
Similarity: Belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. UEV subfamily. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00388}.
Sequence caution: Sequence=CAC42964.1; Type=Frameshift; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
