Function Phosphoinositide phosphatase that preferentially hydrolyzes PtdIns(4)P. Regulates the accumulation of PtdIns(4)P on membrane compartments at the tips of growing root hairs leading to proper root hair development. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12713536, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18281508, ECO:0000269|Ref.7}.
Subcellular Location Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Associated to tip-localized membranes in growing root hairs.
