ID:CHMP5_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Charged multivesicular body protein 5; AltName: Full=Chromatin-modifying protein 5; AltName: Full=SNF7 domain-containing protein 2; AltName: Full=Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 60; Short=Vps60; Short=hVps60; FUNCTION: Probable peripherally associated component of the endosomal sorting required for transport complex III (ESCRT-III) which is involved in multivesicular bodies (MVBs) formation and sorting of endosomal cargo proteins into MVBs. MVBs contain intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) that are generated by invagination and scission from the limiting membrane of the endosome and mostly are delivered to lysosomes enabling degradation of membrane proteins, such as stimulated growth factor receptors, lysosomal enzymes and lipids. The MVB pathway appears to require the sequential function of ESCRT-O, -I,-II and -III complexes. ESCRT- III proteins mostly dissociate from the invaginating membrane before the ILV is released. The ESCRT machinery also functions in topologically equivalent membrane fission events, such as the terminal stages of cytokinesis and the budding of enveloped viruses (HIV-1 and other lentiviruses). ESCRT-III proteins are believed to mediate the necessary vesicle extrusion and/or membrane fission activities, possibly in conjunction with the AAA ATPase VPS4. Involved in HIV-1 p6- and p9-dependent virus release. SUBUNIT: Probable peripherally associated component of the endosomal sorting required for transport complex III (ESCRT-III). ESCRT-III components are thought to multimerize to form a flat lattice on the perimeter membrane of the endosome. Several assembly forms of ESCRT-III may exist that interact and act sequentally. Interacts with VTA1. Interacts with CHMP2A. Interacts with VTA1; the interaction involves soluble CHMP5. INTERACTION: O95630:STAMBP; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-751303, EBI-396676; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, cytosol. Endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein (Probable). Note=Localizes to the midbody of dividing cells. Localized in two distinct rings on either side of the Fleming body. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the SNF7 family. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAG23821.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
