|
| Function |
Enhances the incorporation of serine into phosphatidylserine and sphingolipids. May play a role in providing serine molecules for the formation of myelin glycosphingolipids in oligodendrocytes (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in placenta, skeletal muscle, spleen, thymus, testis and peripheral leukocyte and is expressed weakly in the heart, liver and fetal brain. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12688535}.
