Human Grip and Coiled-Coil Domain-containing Protein 2, GCC2 ELI

Golgin which probably tethers transport vesicles to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and regulates vesicular transport between the endosomes and the Golgi.

As a RAB9A effector it is involved in recycling of the mannose 6-phosphate receptor from the late endosomes to the TGN.

May also play a role in transport between the recycling endosomes and the Golgi.

Required for maintenance of the Golgi structure, it is involved in the biogenesis of noncentrosomal, Golgi-associated microtubules through recruitment of CLASP1 and CLASP2.
