Valosin-containing protein, also called Cdc48, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the VCP gene. It is a member of the AAA+(ATPase associated with various activities) protein family. The gene maps to chromosome 9p13.3. It is necessary for the fragmentation of Golgi stacks during mitosis and for their reassembly after mitosis. It is involved in the formation of the transitional endoplasmic reticulum. This gene plays a role in vesicle transport and fusion, 26S proteasome function, and assembly of peroxisomes. VCP is also involved in DNA damage response: recruited to double-strand breaks(DSBs) sites in a RNF8- and RNF168-dependent manner and promotes the recruitment of TP53BP1 at DNA damage sites.
