The protein encoded by this gene is a member of a family that includes putative ATP-binding proteins involved in vesicle transport and fusion, 26S proteasome function, and assembly of peroxisomes. This protein, as a structural protein, is associated with clathrin, and heat-shock protein Hsc70, to form a complex. It has been implicated in a number of cellular events that are regulated during mitosis, including homotypic membrane fusion, spindle pole body function, and ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation.,VCP,ALS14,CDC48,CMT2Y,HEL-220,HEL-S-70,IBMPFD,IBMPFD1,TERA,p97,Signal Transduction,Cell Biology & Developmental Biology,Apoptosis,Endocrine & Metabolism,Mitochondrial metabolism,Mitochondrial markers,Neuroscience,Neurodegenerative Diseases,Dopamine Signaling in Parkinson's Disease,VCP
