VIPAS39 Gene Summary [Human]

Involved in endosome to lysosome transport and intracellular protein transport. Acts upstream of or within collagen metabolic process and peptidyl-lysine hydroxylation. Located in Golgi apparatus and endosome. Implicated in arthrogryposis, renal dysfunction, and cholestasis 2. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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 VIPAS39 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
