| PF11605 | Vacuolar protein sorting protein 36 Vps36 | domain |
Vps36 is a subunit of ESCRT-II, a protein involved in driving protein sorting from endosomes to lysosomes. The GLUE domain of Vps36 allows for a tight interaction to occur between the protein and Vps28, a subunit of ESCRT-I. This interaction is critical for ubiquitinated cargo progression from early to late endosomes [1].
