    basic FUNCTION
  • involved in vesicle transport through trans-Golgi (facilitation of the trafficking of proteins between trans-Golgi network and lysosome)
  • sorting MGP receptors and lysosome enzymes
  • implicated in the sorting of mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR) (Hida 2007)
  • recruited to the TGN independently of the other GGAs and required for the efficient sorting of lysosomal enzymes (Hida 2007)
  • monomeric clathrin adaptors that mediate cargo sorting and vesicle formation at the TGN (Del Castillo 2010)
    • CELLULAR PROCESS cell organization/biogenesis
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS exocytosis transport , cellular trafficking transport
    text heterotopic vesicle/suborganelle interactions associated with the Gogi complex
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • complexing through the VHS domain with the cytoplasmic domains of sorting receptors such as the mannose phosphate receptor by recognizing the acidic cluster dileucine (ACLL) sequences
    • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interacting by its VHS domain with the cytoplasmic tail of sortilin SORT1
  • binding BACE
  • bind PI4P primarily through their GAT domain, in a region called C-GAT that also binds ubiquitin (Wang 2007)
  • associated with Golgi membranes through interaction between their GGAH domains and ADP-ribosylation factors
  • interacting with CNST (Del Castillo 2010)
