Involved in spermatocyte division. Predicted to be located in lysosome. Predicted to be part of CORVET complex. Expressed in intestine; pharynx; and spermatheca. Used to study ARC syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including arthrogryposis multiplex congenita; arthrogryposis, renal dysfunction, and cholestasis 1; and progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis. Is an ortholog of human VPS33B (VPS33B late endosome and lysosome associated).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
