Vacuolar transporter chaperone complex, VTC2 variant 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
High-molecular-weight integral membrane complex enriched at the vacuolar membrane, but also localizes to other cellular compartments. VTC proteins have been implicated in several membrane-related processes, such as sorting of H+-translocating ATPases, endocytosis, ER-Golgi trafficking, vacuole fusion, vacuolar polyphosphate homeostasis and the microautophagic scission of vesicles into the vacuolar lumen. May bind calmodulin during some, or all, of these processes. This VTC2 variant is mostly located at the ER and nuclear envelope. VTC5 (P38966) can associate with the VTC complex and may act as an optional regulatory subunit.
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.
