Gene Description

CHMP2B is a human ESCRT-III protein that assembles into membrane-associated polymers and contributes to endosomal sorting, cytokinetic abscission, nuclear-envelope reassembly and membrane repair. Its N-terminal membrane-interacting region and polymer-forming core support membrane deformation, while a C-terminal MIT-interacting motif recruits VPS4 ATPases for dynamic remodeling and recycling. The protein has a diffuse cytosolic pool and is transiently recruited to membranes; it is not itself an ATPase. Its functions can overlap with those of CHMP2A, with the extent of redundancy depending on the cellular process. Disease-associated C-terminal variants can alter assembly turnover, endolysosomal delivery and nuclear export, producing toxic effects that need not represent simple loss of every wild-type function.

GO Term Evidence Action Reason
GO:0005771 multivesicular body
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: CHMP2B acts at multivesicular bodies.
Reason: Retain the conserved endosomal ESCRT role. The current projection specifies is_active_in, rather than permanent residence. Target membrane remodeling and endosomal phenotypes independently support the compartment; the historical PAINT node placement was not reconstructed.

GO_REF:0000033
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Retain broad protein transport at endosomal sorting scope.
Reason: The phylogenetic annotation is compatible with ESCRT-mediated sorting and degradation of membrane cargo. It does not mean that CHMP2B is a motor or a general soluble cargo carrier. Current donors and the actual PTN are recorded separately without rewriting the historical assertion.

ACCEPT
Summary: Retain endosomal transport through the MVB pathway.
Reason: This is the established conserved ESCRT sorting role, supported by target ESCRT assembly and endosomal cargo-trafficking defects. The protein contributes membrane-remodeling structure; it is not assigned ATPase or cargo protease activity.

Summary: Retain the conserved late-endosome-to-vacuole pathway role.
Reason: The PAINT inference spans the conserved endosomal pathway, including yeast/fungal vacuolar contexts. Human CHMP2B contributes endolysosomal trafficking; this broad pathway assertion does not establish an intrinsic membrane-fusion activity. The historical ancestral judgment remains unreconstructed.

Summary: CHMP2B is an ESCRT-III subunit.

UNDECIDED
Summary: The exact kinetochore localization remains unresolved.
Reason: The current ARBA rule output is authentic, but the target-specific localization basis has not been resolved. Accessible original PMID:26040712 panels explicitly identify CHMP4B at kinetochores/microtubules and CHMP2A in another panel; the unavailable main body prevents excluding additional CHMP2B experiments.

GO:0001778 plasma membrane repair
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: CHMP2B contributes to plasma-membrane repair.
Reason: Retain the electronic process with independent target evidence. Human CAL51 live imaging and pore-forming-toxin pulse/chase assays place CHMP2B after initial annexin-mediated sealing and in later restoration of membrane integrity. This is a contextual ESCRT remodeling contribution, not evidence that CHMP2B alone closes every wound.

GO:0005643 nuclear pore
IEA

Summary: Refine the location to the nuclear envelope.
Reason: GO:0005643 denotes the nuclear pore complex. Full PMID:26040713 Figures 1A/1B and Extended Data Figure 1A directly localize endogenous human CHMP2B to the reforming nuclear envelope; the separate CHMP2A ultrastructural analysis distinguishes non-NPC membrane openings. The broader envelope location is positively supported, while the original NPC incorporation basis remains unresolved. The historical source is unchanged; this recommendation does not manufacture a new relation or disprove another NPC-associated pool.

Reason: The original electronic mapping is preserved. Full PMID:17984323 demonstrates mutant CHMP2B effects on autophagic clearance, but its inspected immuno-EM labels p62 rather than directly localizing endogenous CHMP2B to this membrane. General ESCRT function and cargo accumulation do not settle this compartment-specific assertion. No absence of a transient target pool is inferred.

Summary: Retain the historical broad transport assertion.
Reason: The archived keyword-derived source object is retained even though this exact tuple is absent from the fresh normal projection. Endosomal cargo trafficking supports the broad biological claim. Its retention is historical provenance, not evidence of an additional current source or a molecular motor.

GO:0030496 midbody
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: Retain CHMP2B localization at the midbody.
Reason: Direct endogenous human CHMP2B immunofluorescence in PMID:26040713 supports this compartment. The ARBA assertion is not used to infer that every ESCRT subunit has an identical recruitment time or requirement.
Supporting Evidence:
GO_REF:0000117
GO:0031468 nuclear membrane reassembly
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: Retain a cooperative nuclear-envelope reassembly role.
Reason: Full human HeLa experiments demonstrate CHMP2B recruitment and a cooperative contribution with CHMP2A. CHMP2B single depletion has little effect on sealing under the tested conditions, whereas combined depletion has a stronger phenotype; this does not make CHMP2B independently essential in every setting.

Summary: Retain viral budding as a contextual use of ESCRT machinery.
Reason: Human CHMP2B contributes redundantly with CHMP2A during HIV-1 budding. Pairwise depletion and infectivity/release experiments support viral use of the host remodeling apparatus, without making viral propagation the defining cellular function or transferring another CHMP paralog structure to CHMP2B.

Summary: Retain degradation through the MVB sorting pathway.
Reason: The annotation describes a pathway-level contribution to delivery and clearance of ubiquitinated membrane cargo. CHMP2B is a structural ESCRT participant rather than a protease, deubiquitinase, or ubiquitin-transfer enzyme. Mutant clearance defects must not be read as a purified catalytic assay.

GO:0061952 midbody abscission
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: Retain the cytokinetic abscission role.
Reason: Human CHMP2B depletion causes cytokinesis defects in the ESCRT survey, and direct midbody localization plus membrane-remodeling ability support performed structural work. This is not a claim that the isolated protein autonomously severs a midbody.

GO_REF:0000117
GO:0071985 multivesicular body sorting pathway
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: Retain the MVB sorting role.
Reason: The electronic pathway assertion agrees with the conserved ESCRT-III membrane-remodeling function and target endosomal cargo-trafficking evidence. Individual disease mutants can impair endosome-lysosome fusion while leaving intraluminal cargo sorting intact, so mutant phenotypes do not define a universal block of every MVB step.

GO:0097352 autophagosome maturation
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Retain autophagosome maturation as a contextual pathway role.
Reason: Full PMID:17984323 measures increased autophagic structures and defective aggregate clearance with disease-associated CHMP2B truncations. This supports the existing pathway connection but does not isolate CHMP2B-mediated phagophore closure, autophagosome initiation, or an intrinsic fusion activity.

GO_REF:0000117
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Retain regulation of spindle assembly at phenotype scope.
Reason: Human CHMP2B depletion produces multipolar spindle and centrosome-number phenotypes in PMID:20616062. The responsible step remains unresolved; the paper does not establish CHMP2B as a microtubule motor or a direct spindle-building factor.

IEA
GO_REF:0000117
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Retain late-endosomal delivery to lysosomes.
Reason: CHMP2B-dependent endosomal homeostasis and mutant-associated defects in lysosomal delivery support this existing pathway assertion. The evidence does not distinguish an autonomous fusion activity from persistent ESCRT assembly and impaired access of downstream fusion machinery.

ACCEPT
Summary: Retain MVB-pathway sorting.
Reason: The original experimental source remains unchanged; its incomplete selected cache does not justify a paralog-miscitation allegation. Conserved ESCRT function and independent human target endosomal and membrane-assembly evidence support the pathway. Mutant endolysosomal fusion defects are distinguished from loss of intraluminal sorting, which was intact in PMID:20223751.

PMID:19234443
Membrane scission by the ESCRT-III complex
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Retain membrane fission as contextual ESCRT biology.
Reason: The original reconstitution is yeast: Vps2/Vps4 enable recycling and subsequent rounds, while the first scission round does not require Vps2. Independent human CHMP2B deformation and ESCRT-associated budding evidence support the existing broad process, not an isolated autonomous human scission assay. First-round dispensability does not disprove participation; non-core prominence distinguishes this source-specific recycling contribution from the directly demonstrated human membrane-bending activity.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Retain autophagosome-maturation context.
Reason: The full study measures clearance defects and accumulated autophagic structures after disease-linked CHMP2B expression. It does not isolate a WT CHMP2B reaction sealing phagophores or establish the exact site where the maturation pathway fails.

UNDECIDED
Summary: The compartment-specific target localization is unresolved.
Reason: The full original main article was read. Its CHMP2B truncation experiments show defective clearance and altered LC3/p62 structures; the inspected ultrastructural membrane labels are p62, not a target-specific CHMP2B localization assay. The accessible supplemental description does not resolve endogenous CHMP2B on this exact membrane.

Reason: The original HDA assertion is preserved. PMID:25468996 uses E-cadherin–BirA proximity biotinylation and explicitly defines a surrounding proteome; proximity need not be physical binding. The target-specific supplementary row and an orthogonal CHMP2B–cadherin binding assay were not recovered. No negative interaction result is asserted.

UNDECIDED
Summary: The exact MVB–lysosome fusion role remains unresolved.
Reason: The original review discusses ESCRT-associated fusion phenotypes. Actual human mutant experiments show blocked delivery/fusion and reduced Rab7 recruitment, but do not settle whether WT CHMP2B performs fusion rather than enabling an upstream membrane-remodeling and recycling step. This precise assignment remains unresolved.

Summary: Retain ESCRT disassembly through VPS4 recruitment.
Reason: CHMP2B contains a C-terminal MIT-interacting motif that binds VPS4 ATPases. This supplies a recruitment interface supporting recycling; VPS4 performs ATP hydrolysis and subunit extraction.

Reason: The original partner is mouse Q9D8B3 (mSnf7-2/Chmp4b). The authentic abstract explicitly reports WT CHMP2B binding and stronger mutant association; full Methods and exact construct recipe remain inaccessible. Independent human CHMP4B co-IP corroborates the conserved association without rewriting the mouse source or pretending all constructs were WT.

This is deep-etch EM in a trapped-assembly condition. The original colocalizes_with qualifier is retained exactly; it is not silently upgraded to stable membrane incorporation.

Reason: The actual PMID:23051622 combined-depletion experiment with CHMP2A supports a genetic contribution to HIV release. The exact current WITH/FROM partner is preserved. These are perturbation assays rather than binary-binding tests, and they do not establish that CHMP2B alone is indispensable for every virus.

Reason: The original source resolves binding of the CHMP2B C-terminal MIT-interacting peptide to VPS4B, using structural/binding experiments. The exact current partner is preserved. ATPase binding is more informative than generic domain binding and describes the partner class; it does not assign ATP hydrolysis to CHMP2B.

Summary: Propose the directly measured membrane-deformation activity.
Reason: Human CHMP2B WT/C-terminal-tag constructs deform membranes into tubes, with N-terminal-tag and L4D/F5D controls. Purified human CHMP2B 1–154 after CHMP4B assembly independently deforms defined liposomes. The activity is sensitive to activation, tagging, lipid composition and geometry; autonomous universal scission or restriction of a fenestration is not established. This MF proposal replaces the prior authored grommet claim; no machine annotation is rewritten.

Core Functions

CHMP2B performs membrane-deforming structural work in dynamic ESCRT-III assemblies. Human full-length WT/C-terminal-tag cellular tubulation and purified activated 1–154 protein after CHMP4B provide direct evidence, with tag, lipid, activation and geometry limits. The C-terminal MIM recruits VPS4 rather than supplying ATP hydrolysis. One structural activity contributes to endosomal sorting, abscission, cooperative nuclear-envelope reassembly and later stages of membrane repair; the evidence does not establish autonomous universal scission, direct phagophore closure, or a membrane-fenestration grommet. PMID:33832485 is condition-dependent countercontext: CHMP2B coats stiffen membranes under its tested conditions, so it is not used as affirmative evidence of bending. The 2021 full-length 1–222 numbering does not match current 213-aa Q9UQN3 and is not silently assigned to an isoform.

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Which target-specific assays underlie the original CHMP2B kinetochore/microtubule and autophagosome/lysosome/amphisome membrane annotations? The inspected panels do not resolve those scopes, but absence is not established.

Q: Does CHMP2B directly participate in a bilayer-fusion step, or do persistent ESCRT assemblies and altered Rab7 access explain the endolysosomal fusion phenotypes?

Q: Which native CHMP2B assemblies deform membranes, promote scission, or restrict fenestrations under defined physiological geometries? Bending is directly supported; these outcomes are not interchangeable.

Q: How do the two current products differ in membrane remodeling and VPS4 recruitment, and what sequence underlies the 2021 full-length construct numbered 1–222?

Q: Can the exact original prostatic-exosome and E-cadherin-proximity target tables be recovered and orthogonally corroborated?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Compare sequence-verified native products, WT full-length and defined activated constructs in matched membrane deformation and scission assays, retaining CHMP4/VPS4 order-of-addition controls.

Hypothesis: CHMP2B membrane deformation and VPS4-dependent turnover depend on activation state and membrane geometry.

Experiment: Use endogenous CHMP2B labeling and validated orthogonal antibodies with compartment markers, separating WT from pathogenic truncations and distinguishing NPC incorporation from nuclear-envelope recruitment.

Hypothesis: The unresolved compartment annotations represent transient target pools or source-specific scope differences.
