Also known as VPS20, charged multivesicular body protein 6

Charged multivesicular body protein 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CHMP6 gene. It is one of charged multivesicular body proteins and a part of endosomal sorting complexes required for transport-III (ESCRT-III) complex.

This gene encodes a member of the chromatin-modifying protein/charged multivesicular body protein family. Proteins in this family are part of the ESCRT-III (endosomal sorting complex required for transport III) which degrades surface receptors, and in biosynthesis of endosomes.
