VBP1 VHL binding protein 1

Gene ID: 7411, updated on 19-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: PFD3; PFDN3; VBP-1; HIBBJ46

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene interacts with the Von Hippel-Lindau protein to form an intracellular complex. The encoded protein functions as a chaperone protein, and may play a role in the transport of the Von Hippel-Lindau protein from the perinuclear granules to the nucleus or cytoplasm. Alternative splicing and the use of alternate transcription start sites results in multiple transcript variants encoding different protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]
