Function |
Involved in the formation of stomatal and fenestral diaphragms of caveolae. May function in microvascular permeability. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15155804}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Membrane, caveola {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region {ECO:0000250}. Note=Membrane- associated protein of caveolae. Found in fenestral and stomatal diaphragms in fenestrated endothelia and transendothelial channels. Also colocalized with CAV1 in perinuclear region (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
