| Function |
May play a role in vesicle-mediated protein trafficking to lysosomal compartments and in membrane docking/fusion reactions of late endosomes/lysosomes.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Late endosome membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17897319}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17897319}; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17897319}. Lysosome membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17897319}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17897319}; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17897319}. Note=Cytoplasmic, peripheral membrane protein associated with late endosomes/lysosomes.
