Description

The VAPB gene (VAMP (vesicle-associated membrane protein)-associated protein B and C) [HGNC Gene ID: 12649] is located on chromosome 20q13.33. The protein encoded by this gene is a type IV membrane protein found in plasma and intracellular vesicle membranes. The encoded protein is found as a homodimer and as a heterodimer with VAPA. This protein also can interact with VAMP1 and VAMP2 and may be involved in vesicle trafficking. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008][NCBI Gene ID: 9217] Defects in this gene are the cause of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 8 phenotype.[OMIM: 608627] Source: National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Gene
