| Function |
Contributes to the epidermal integrity and skin barrier function. Plays a role in the lamellar granule (LG) secretory system and in the stratum corneum (SC) epithelial cell formation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Lysosome {ECO:0000250}. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network {ECO:0000250}. Membrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi- pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Note=Colocalized with TGOLN2 in the trans-Golgi network. Colocalized with LAMP1 in the lysosome (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in the epidermis of the skin. Expressed in epithelial cells of the outermost layer of the stratum granulosum (SG) and hair follicles (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24060273, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24084074}.
