| Function | Plays a central role in the biogenesis of melanosomes. Involved in the maturation of melanosomes from stage I to II. The transition from stage I melanosomes to stage II melanosomes involves an elongation of the vesicle, and the appearance within of distinct fibrillar structures (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |
| Subcellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Golgi apparatus {ECO:0000250}. Melanosome {ECO:0000250}. Endosome, multivesicular body {ECO:0000250}. Note=Localizes predominantly to intralumenal vesicles (ILVs) within multivesicular bodies. Associates with ILVs found within the lumen of premelanosomes and melanosomes and particularly in compartments that serve as precursors to the striated stage II premelanosomes (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |
| Tissue Specificity | Preferentially expressed in melanocytes. |
