Table 1.

Gene names of ESCRTs from the organisms discussed in this review. Aliases, typically used in mammalian systems, are provided. Fly and worm orthologues compiled from Flybase beta (FB2017_93) and Wormbase WS259. Where orthologues were predicted, but not annotated, sequence identifiers were used. Usp-50 and Ego-2’s equivalence to UBPY and PTPN23 was from [180].
