| Gene Symbol | COG3 |
| Full Name | Conserved Oligomeric Golgi Complex 3 |
| Chromosome | 13q14.11 |
| Function | COG3 is one of the core subunits essential for the structural integrity and function of lobe B of the complex[@miller2019]. |
| Amino Acids | 122 aa |
| GeneCards | COG3 |
| Human Protein Atlas | COG3 |
| Synaptic protein trafficking | Many synaptic proteins require proper Golgi-to-plasma membrane trafficking. COG3 mutations can impair synaptic protein delivery and function[@liu2019]. |
| Lysosomal trafficking | Proper function of the COG complex is essential for autophagy and lysosomal degradation pathways that clear misfolded proteins. |
| Mitochondrial protein trafficking | COG-mediated trafficking affects mitochondrial quality control mechanisms. |
| Protein homeostasis | Impaired Golgi trafficking disrupts protein quality control mechanisms essential for motor neuron survival. |
| Axonal transport | COG3 deficiency can impair axonal vesicle trafficking critical for neuromuscular junction function. |
| Associated Diseases | neurodegeneration |
