| Function |
Can insert into membranes and form poorly selective ion channels that may also transport chloride ions. Channel activity depends on the pH. Membrane insertion seems to be redox-regulated and may occur only under oxydizing conditions. Promotes cell- surface expression of HRH3. Has alternate cellular functions like a potential role in angiogenesis or in maintaining apical- basolateral membrane polarity during mitosis and cytokinesis. Could also promote endothelial cell proliferation and regulate endothelial morphogenesis (tubulogenesis). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12163372, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14569596, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16176272, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16239224, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18302930, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19247789}.

| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Nucleus matrix. Cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Mitochondrion. Cell junction. Note=Colocalized with AKAP9 at the centrosome and midbody. Exists both as soluble cytoplasmic protein and as membrane protein with probably a single transmembrane domain. Present in an intracellular vesicular compartment that likely represent trans-Golgi network vesicles.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Detected in epithelial cells from colon, esophagus and kidney (at protein level). Expression is prominent in heart, kidney, placenta and skeletal muscle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10793131, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17200346, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17636002}.
