We have identified VPS33B, the human ortholog of rat Vps33b. VPS33B encodes a
transcript of 2482 nt with an ORF of 617 amino acids and a predicted protein size of 70.6
kDa. VPS33B contains a Sec-1 domain shared with a family of proteins involved in protein
sorting and vesicular trafficking. Enriched expression of VPS33B was observed in testis.
VPS33B was positioned at chromosome 15q26. 1 by radiation hybrid mapping.
