Description: Homo sapiens SNF8, ESCRT-II complex subunit (SNF8), mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_007241): The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport II (ESCRT-II), which regulates the movement of ubiquitinylated transmembrane proteins to the lysosome for degradation. This complex also interacts with the RNA polymerase II elongation factor (ELL) to overcome the repressive effects of ELL on RNA polymerase II activity. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]. Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg19 chr17:47,007,459-47,022,154 Size: 14,696 Total Exon Count: 8 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg19 chr17:47,007,837-47,022,096 Size: 14,260 Coding Exon Count: 8
ID:SNF8_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Vacuolar-sorting protein SNF8; AltName: Full=ELL-associated protein of 30 kDa; AltName: Full=ESCRT-II complex subunit VPS22; Short=hVps22; FUNCTION: Component of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport II (ESCRT-II), which is required for multivesicular body (MVB) formation and sorting of endosomal cargo proteins into MVBs. The MVB pathway mediates delivery of transmembrane proteins into the lumen of the lysosome for degradation. The ESCRT-II complex is probably involved in the recruitment of the ESCRT-III complex. The ESCRT-II complex may also play a role in transcription regulation by participating in derepression of transcription by RNA polymerase II, possibly via its interaction with ELL. Required for degradation of both endocytosed EGF and EGFR, but not for the EGFR ligand-mediated internalization. It is also required for the degradation of CXCR4. SUBUNIT: Component of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport II (ESCRT-II), composed of SNF8, VPS25 and VPS36. SNF8 is essential for the stability of the ESCRT-II complex. ESCRT-II interacts with ELL. Interacts with TSG101 (via the C-terminal domain). Interacts with RILPL1 (via the N-terminal domain); which recruits ESCRT-II to the endosome membranes. Interacts with 14-3-3 proteins. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Endosome membrane. Nucleus (Probable). Late endosome membrane. Note=Recruited to the endosome membrane to participate in vesicle formation. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the SNF8 family.
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.
