Function

This gene encodes a protein with sequence similarity to the yeast Vps53p protein. Vps53p is involved in retrograde vesicle trafficking in late Golgi. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

Mutations in VPS53 cause pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 2E, PCH2E ( also known as progressive cerebello-cerebral atrophy type 2, PCCA2).[6]
