    basic FUNCTION
  • playing a role in trafficking proteins, including inflammatory mediators
  • playing a role in segregation of intracellular molecules into distinct organelles
  • essential for SNARE-mediated membrane trafficking
  • key molecule that functions downstream from RAB5, cooperating with ZFYVE20, to regulate the dynamics of the endocytic system in multicellular organisms
  • playing a role in Golgi-to-lysosome trafficking
  • VPS45 and ZFYVE20 are implicated in post early endosome transport, and their interaction potentially serves as a nexus to promote bidirectional transport along the endosome-to-recycling compartment and endosome-to-Golgi axes

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interact with its cognate SNARE proteins through distinct mechanisms at different stages in the SNARE assembly/disassembly cycle
  • RBSN is a RAB5 effector that bridges an interaction between Rab5 and the Sec1/Munc18-family protein VPS45
  • interacts with the divalent Rab4/Rab5 effector, ZFYVE20 and carries out multiple functions in the endocytic/secretory pathways
