Also known as: CG6116; Dmel\CG6116; dUVRAG; uvrag; UVRAG; Vps38
Summary: Predicted to enable SNARE binding activity. Involved in several processes, including imaginal disc-derived male genitalia morphogenesis; negative regulation of Notch signaling pathway; and neuron remodeling. Predicted to be active in endosome and lytic vacuole. Is expressed in embryonic/larval garland cell; garland cell primordium; head mesoderm; organism; and trunk mesoderm. Used to study colorectal cancer. Orthologous to human UVRAG (UV radiation resistance associated). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
