Summary
Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and kinase activator activity. Predicted to be involved in phosphatidylinositol biosynthetic process and positive regulation of kinase activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within response to osmotic stress. Predicted to be located in cytosol and vacuolar membrane. Predicted to be part of PAS complex. Predicted to be active in endosome membrane. Predicted to be extrinsic component of vacuolar membrane. Is expressed in embryo and extraembryonic component. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in striatonigral degeneration. Orthologous to human VAC14 (VAC14 component of PIKFYVE complex). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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.
