Description | This family represents a conserved region approximately 150 residues long within a number of eukaryotic proteins that show homology with Drosophila melanogaster Modifier of rudimentary (Mod(r)) proteins. The N-terminal half of Mod(r) proteins is acidic, whereas the C-terminal half is basic [1], and both of these regions are represented in this family. Members of this family include the Vps37 subunit of the endosomal sorting complex ESCRT-I, a complex involved in recruiting transport machinery for protein sorting at the multivesicular body (MVB). The yeast ESCRT-I complex consists of three proteins (Vps23, Vps28 and Vps37). The mammalian homologue of Vps37 interacts with Tsg101 (Pfam: PF05743) through its mod(r) domain and its function is essential for lysosomal sorting of EGF receptors [2]. |
