Function |
Ligand-specific transporter trafficking between intracellular organelles (TGN) and the plasma membrane. Plays a role in autocrine regulation of cell growth mediated by growth regulators containing cell surface retention sequence binding (CRS). May act as a hyaluronan (HA) transporter, either mediating its uptake for catabolism within lymphatic endothelial cells themselves, or its transport into the lumen of afferent lymphatic vessels for subsequent re-uptake and degradation in lymph nodes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10037799}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10037799}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10037799}. Note=Localized to the plasma membrane and in vesicles near extranuclear membranes which may represent trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes/prelysosomeal compartments. Undergoes ligand- dependent internalization and recycling at the cell surface.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Mainly expressed in endothelial cells lining lymphatic vessels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10037799}.
