Disease relevance of VPS37B

  • 4) Finally, VPS37B could recruit TSG101/ESCRT-I activity and thereby rescue the budding of both mutant Gag particles and HIV-1 viruses lacking native late domains [1].
  • Depletion of VPS37C from cells does not inhibit murine leukemia virus budding, which is not mediated by ESCRT-I, however, if murine leukemia virus budding is engineered to be ESCRT-I-dependent, then it is inhibited by VPS37C depletion, and this inhibition is accentuated if VPS37B is simultaneously depleted [2].
 

High impact information on VPS37B

  • 3) Like TGS101, VPS37B became trapped on aberrant endosomal compartments in the presence of VPS4A proteins lacking ATPase activity [1].
 

Physical interactions of VPS37B

  • 1) TSG101 bound to several different sites on VPS37B, including a putative coiled-coil region and a PTAP motif [1].
