Summary
Acts upstream of or within pigmentation; platelet formation; and regulation of developmental pigmentation. Located in autophagosome and lysosome. Part of CORVET complex. Is expressed in ganglia. Used to study Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome. Orthologous to human VPS33A (VPS33A core subunit of CORVET and HOPS complexes). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
Expression
Ubiquitous expression in cortex adult (RPKM 12.1), frontal lobe adult (RPKM 11.8) and 28 other tissues See more

GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?
  1. VPS33A(D251E) mutation plays dual roles by increasing the HOPS complex assembly and its association with the autophagic SNARE complex, which selectively affects the autophagosome-lysosome fusion.
    Title: Impairment of autophagosome-lysosome fusion in the buff mutant mice with the VPS33A(D251E) mutation.
  2. Knockdown of Vps33a expression reduced the lysosomal storage of RANKL and caused the accumulation of newly synthesized RANKL in the Golgi apparatus, indicating that Vps33a is involved in transporting RANKL from the Golgi apparatus to secretory lysosomes.

  3. These studies suggest that loss of Purkinje neurons is the most obvious neurological atrophy in the buff mutant mouse, a structural change that generates motor coordination deficits and impaired postural phenotypes.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
