function:May play a role in vesicle-mediated protein trafficking to lysosomal compartments and in membrane docking/fusion reactions of late endosomes/lysosomes.,similarity:Belongs to the VPS18 family.,similarity:Contains 1 clathrin repeat.,similarity:Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.,subcellular location:Cytoplasmic, peripheral membrane protein associated with late endosomes/lysosomes.,subunit:Interacts with HOOK1 (By similarity). Large hetero-oligomeric complex together with VPS11, VPS16 and VPS33A. Interacts with STX7.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitous. Expression was highest in heart and low in lung.,
