Members of this family are involved in the negative regulation of gluconeogenesis. They are required for both proteosome-dependent and vacuolar catabolite degradation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase), where they probably regulate FBPase targeting from the FBPase-containing vesicles to the vacuole [ 1 , 2 ].
