| 266 | Vps22, Drosophila melanogaster | Component of the ESCRT-II complex (ensodomal sorting complex required for transport II)
complex needed for sorting ubiquitinated endosomal proteins into multivesicular bodies
important for transport of transmembrane proteins to the lysosome for degradation | with other members of the ESCRT complex, binds to the localization element in the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of bicoid mRNA
functions in localizing bicoid mRNA to the anterior of the Drosophila egg | Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly, an insect) |
