Facts about Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 51 homolog.
VPS51 participates in retrograde transport of acid hydrolase receptors, likely by encouraging tethering and SNARE-dependent combination of endosome-derived carriers into the TGN (PubMed:20685960). Acts as part of the EARP complex that is involved in endocytic recycling.
