Facts about Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 16 homolog.
The CORVET complex is proposed to function as a Rab5 effector to mediate early endosome fusion likely in specific endosome subpopulations (PubMed:11382755, PubMed:23351085, PubMed:24554770, PubMed:25266290, PubMed:25783203). Required for recruiting of VPS33A into the HOPS complex (PubMed:23901104).
