| UniProt functional annotation for O60763 | |||
| UniProt code: O60763. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | General vesicular transport factor required for intercisternal transport in the Golgi stack; it is required for transcytotic fusion and/or subsequent binding of the vesicles to the target membrane. May well act as a vesicular anchor by interacting with the target membrane and holding the vesicular and target membranes in proximity. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P41542}. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. Dimerizes by parallel association of the tails, resulting in an elongated structure with two globular head domains side by side, and a long rod-like tail structure (Probable). Interacts with MIF. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19247479, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19454686, ECO:0000305}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm, cytosol {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19454686, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9478999}. Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19454686, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9478999}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19454686, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9478999}. Note=Recycles between the cytosol and the Golgi apparatus during interphase. During interphase, the phosphorylated form is found exclusively in cytosol; the unphosphorylated form is associated with Golgi apparatus membranes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19454686, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9478999}. | |
| Domain: | Composed of a globular head, an elongated tail (coiled-coil) and a highly acidic C-terminal domain. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19247479}. | |
| Ptm: | Phosphorylated in a cell cycle-specific manner; phosphorylated in interphase but not in mitotic cells. Dephosphorylated protein associates with the Golgi membrane; phosphorylation promotes dissociation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9478999}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the VDP/USO1/EDE1 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=AAH06398.1; Type=Miscellaneous discrepancy; Note=Contaminating sequence. Potential poly-A sequence.; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
