Conserved oligomeric Golgi complex subunit 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COG3 gene.[1][2]

The protein encoded by this gene has similarity to a yeast protein. It seems to be part of a peripheral membrane protein complex localized on cis/medial Golgi cisternae where it may participate in tethering intra-Golgi transport vesicles.[2]

Interactions

COG3 has been shown to interact with COG2[3] and COG1.[3]
