VAPB VAMP associated protein B and C [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 9217)

Symbol: VAPB

Full name: VAMP associated protein B and C

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: ALS8; VAMP-B; VAP-B

Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a type IV membrane protein found in plasma and intracellular vesicle membranes. The encoded protein is found as a homodimer and as a heterodimer with VAPA. This protein also can interact with VAMP1 and VAMP2 and may be involved in vesicle trafficking.
