Also known as: Car; carn; CG12230; Dm-Vps33; Dmel\CG12230; l(1)G0447; Vps33; Vps33/carnation; vps33a; Vps33a; Vps33A; VPS33a; Vps33p
Summary: Enables syntaxin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including compound eye pigmentation; lysosomal transport; and vesicle organization. Located in lysosome. Part of CORVET complex and HOPS complex. Is expressed in several structures, including circulatory system primordium; embryonic/larval hemocyte; embryonic/larval midgut primordium; mesoderm; and visceral mesoderm derivative. Orthologous to human VPS33A (VPS33A core subunit of CORVET and HOPS complexes). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
