Function |
Involved in the lipid remodeling steps of GPI-anchor maturation. Lipid remodeling steps consist in the generation of 2 saturated fatty chains at the sn-2 position of GPI-anchors proteins. Required for phospholipase A2 activity that removes an acyl-chain at the sn-2 position of GPI-anchors during the remodeling of GPI (Probable). {ECO:0000305|PubMed:17021251}.

Subcellular Location |
Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12460457}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12460457}. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12460457}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12460457}. Note=Mainly localizes to Golgi apparatus. {ECO:0000305}.

Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in thyroid and placenta. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12460457}.
