Vps53 - VPS53 GARP complex subunit

Predicted to be involved in endocytic recycling and retrograde transport, endosome to Golgi. Predicted to act upstream of or within lysosomal transport. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including perinuclear region of cytoplasm; recycling endosome; and trans-Golgi network. Predicted to be part of EARP complex and GARP complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 2E. Orthologous to human VPS53 (VPS53 subunit of GARP complex). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
