Function |
Rab effector playing a role in late endocytic transport to degradative compartments. Involved in the regulation of lysosomal morphology and distribution. Induces recruitment of dynein-dynactin motor complexes to Rab7A-containing late endosome and lysosome compartments. Promotes centripetal migration of phagosomes and the fusion of phagosomes with the late endosomes and lysosomes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11179213, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11696325, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12944476, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14668488}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Endomembrane system. Late endosome membrane. Lysosome membrane. Cytoplasmic vesicle, phagosome membrane. Note=Associated with late endosomal, lysosomal and phagosomal membranes. The interaction with RAB7A is necessary for its recruitment to phagosomes.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitous. Strongly expressed in fetal heart, heart, stomach, spleen, adrenal gland, thyroid gland, salivary gland, fetal liver, liver and lung. Poorly expressed in brain. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11179213, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11520070, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14668488}.
