GARP tethering complex Overview

GO Annotations consist of four mandatory components: a gene product, a term from one of the three Gene Ontology (GO) controlled vocabularies (Molecular Function, Biological Process, and Cellular Component), a reference, and an evidence code.


Summary
Tethering complex required for retrograde traffic from both the early and late endosomes to the Golgi during vesicle trafficking,sorting cargo for recycling to the plasma membrane or degradation in vacuoles. Links the vesicle through the SNARE proteins such as TGL1 (Q03322) to the Golgi, leading to membrane fusion between late Golgi and endosomal vesicles. Required for the recycling of amino-phospholipid flippases and cell wall synthesis proteins, thus playing a role in lipid homeostasis. Essential role in meiotic progression and spore formation.
GO Slim Terms

The yeast GO Slim terms are higher level terms that best represent the major S. cerevisiae biological processes, functions, and cellular components. The GO Slim terms listed here are the broader parent terms for the specific terms to which this gene product is annotated, and thus represent the more general processes, functions, and components in which it is involved.
