Function |
May play a role in triacylglycerol packaging into adipocytes. May function as a coat protein involved in the biogenesis of lipid droplets (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Lipid droplet {ECO:0000250}. Note=Nascent lipid droplet surface-associated; association with lipid droplets is triacylglycerol synthesis-dependent. {ECO:0000250}.
