Function

The HOPS complex is a RAB19 effector functioning in CC and ciliogenesis through a non-lysosomal pathway. VPS41 and VPS11 co-precipitate with the C-terminus of TBC1D4 and this binding is significantly decreased in RAB19 KO cells. RAB19 recruits the HOPS complex to the centrosome and mediates interaction with TBC1D4 to coordinate CC and ciliary membrane growth during primary ciliogenesis(33561422).
