Description

EIPR1 encodes a protein that interacts with the EARP (endosome-associated recycling protein) and GARP (Golgi-associated retrograde protein) complexes, which are tethering complexes involved in endosomal-to-Golgi and endosomal recycling pathways. The protein is thought to play a role in the sorting and trafficking of membrane proteins, including receptors and transporters, and may influence cellular signaling and homeostasis.

Protein Summary

The EIPR1 protein is a 244-amino acid polypeptide that localizes to endosomes and the Golgi apparatus. It interacts with VPS51, VPS52, VPS53, and VPS54 subunits of the GARP and EARP complexes, facilitating tethering and fusion of vesicles. The protein contains a coiled-coil domain and is conserved across eukaryotes.
