|
| Function |
Participates in the regulation of cellular Ca(2+) homeostasis, at least partly, by modulating the filling state of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) store. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16989814}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in heart followed by brain, placenta, lung and pancreas. Weakly expressed in liver, kidney and skeletal muscle. Also expressed in islet and beta-cell insulinoma cell line.
|
| Top Pathways |
Protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum
