| Function | May be involved in protein trafficking from the plasma membrane to the early endosome (EE) as well as in homotypic fusion of endocytic organelles. Mediates the endocytic trafficking from early endosomes to late endosomes and lysosomes. |
| Subcellular Location | Early endosome membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type IV membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. |
| Tissue Specificity | Highest expression is found in placenta followed by heart, skeletal muscle, kidney and brain. Low expression is found in pancreas, lung and liver. |
| Top Pathways | Phagosome, SNARE interactions in vesicular transport |
