Protein
DOA4-independent degradation protein 4
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c)
Function
Required for the sorting and concentration of proteins resulting in the entry of these proteins into the invaginating vesicles of the multivesicular body (MVB). Acts a component of the ESCRT-III complex, which appears to be critical for late steps in MVB sorting, such as membrane invagination and final cargo sorting and recruitment of late-acting components of the sorting machinery. The MVB pathway requires the sequential function of ESCRT-O, -I,-II and -III complex assemblies. Can directly stimulate VPS4 ATPase activity. The DID4/VPS2-VPS24 subcomplex is required for the VPS4-dependent dissociation of ESCRT-III.
Similarity
Belongs to the SNF7 family.
