High impact information on VPS36

  • Furthermore, we show that Eap45 colocalizes with ubiquitinated proteins on late endosomes [1].
  • Here we report the cloning of cDNAs encoding the EAP45 and EAP20 proteins [2].
  • The GLUE (GRAM-like, ubiquitin-binding on Eap45) domain extending beyond the core of the ESCRT II complex recognizes PtdIns3P-containing membranes, monoubiquitinated cargo and ESCRT I [3].
  • Here, we report that the three subunits of human ESCRT-II, EAP20, EAP30, and EAP45, have a number of properties in common with their yeast orthologs [4].
  • Furthermore, VPS36 localizes to the anterior of the oocyte in a bicoid-mRNA-dependent manner, and is required for the subsequent recruitment of Staufen to the bicoid complex [5].
 

Biological context of VPS36

  • Residues in two amino-terminal PPXY motifs (motif I and II), involved in dimerization of Vps25p and interaction with Vps22p and Vps36p, were closely, but not absolutely conserved [6].
