Also known as KIAA1475PEP3
Summary
VPS18 (VPS18 core subunit of CORVET and HOPS complexes, HGNC:15972) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 15q15.1, encoding Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 18 homolog (Q9P253). Plays a role in vesicle-mediated protein trafficking to lysosomal compartments including the endocytic membrane transport and autophagic pathways. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 91.6% of cancer cell lines).
Vesicle mediated protein sorting plays an important role in segregation of intracellular molecules into distinct organelles. Genetic studies in yeast have identified more than 40 vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) genes involved in vesicle transport to vacuoles. This gene encodes the human homolog of yeast class C Vps18 protein. The mammalian class C Vps proteins are predominantly associated with late endosomes/lysosomes, and like their yeast counterparts, may mediate vesicle trafficking steps in the endosome/lysosome pathway.

Function. Plays a role in vesicle-mediated protein trafficking to lysosomal compartments including the endocytic membrane transport and autophagic pathways. Believed to act as a core component of the putative HOPS and CORVET endosomal tethering complexes which are proposed to be involved in the Rab5-to-Rab7 endosome conversion probably implicating MON1A/B, and via binding SNAREs and SNARE complexes to mediate tethering and docking events during SNARE-mediated membrane fusion. The HOPS complex is proposed to be recruited to Rab7 on the late endosomal membrane and to regulate late endocytic, phagocytic and autophagic traffic towards lysosomes. The CORVET complex is proposed to function as a Rab5 effector to mediate early endosome fusion probably in specific endosome subpopulations. Required for fusion of endosomes and autophagosomes with lysosomes. Involved in dendrite development of Pukinje cells.
Subunit / interactions. Core component of at least two putative endosomal tethering complexes, the homotypic fusion and vacuole protein sorting (HOPS) complex and the class C core vacuole/endosome tethering (CORVET) complex. Their common core is composed of the class C Vps proteins VPS11, VPS16, VPS18 and VPS33A, which in HOPS further associates with VPS39 and VPS41 and in CORVET with VPS8 and TGFBRAP1. Interacts with RAB5C. Interacts with HOOK1. Interacts with STX7, MON1B. Associates with adaptor protein complex 3 (AP-3) and clathrin:AP-3 complexes. Interacts with SYNPO2. Interacts with PLEKHM1.
Subcellular location. Late endosome membrane. Lysosome membrane. Early endosome. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Autophagosome. Clathrin-coated vesicle.
Tissue specificity. Ubiquitous. Expression was highest in heart and low in lung.
Similarity. Belongs to the VPS18 family.
