High impact information on VPS29

  • The sequences of the VPS29, VPS30, and VPS35 genes do not yet give any clues to the functions of their products [1].
  • We cloned the Arabidopsis thaliana homologs of the three yeast proteins (Vps35, Vps29, and Vps26) constituting the larger subunit of retromer and prepared antisera against them [2].
  • Vps35p recognizes cargo molecules such as Vps10p and interacts strongly with Vps29p [3].
  • The MAG1 gene encodes a homolog of the yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) protein VPS29 [4].
  • VPS29 is a component of a retromer complex for recycling a vacuolar sorting receptor VPS10 from the pre-vacuolar compartment to the Golgi complex [4].
