USE1 Gene Summary [Human]
Predicted to enable SNAP receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including lysosomal transport; protein catabolic process; and retrograde vesicle-mediated transport, Golgi to endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to act upstream of or within endoplasmic reticulum tubular network organization and regulation of ER to Golgi vesicle-mediated transport. Located in endoplasmic reticulum.

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human USE1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- transmembrane domain
- protein binding
- Membrane fusion protein Use1
- SNARE motif
