| Function |
Regulates RHOA activity, and plays a role in cytoskeleton remodeling. Necessary for normal completion of cytokinesis. Plays a role in maintaining normal diacylglycerol levels in the Golgi apparatus. Binds phosphatidyl inositol phosphates (in vitro). May catalyze the transfer of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine between membranes (By similarity). Necessary for maintaining the normal structure of the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus. Required for protein export from the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi. Binds calcium ions. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10022914, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11909959, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15545272, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15723057}.

| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm. Golgi apparatus, Golgi stack membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Lipid droplet. Cleavage furrow. Midbody. Note=Peripheral membrane protein associated with Golgi stacks in interphase cells. A minor proportion is associated with the endoplasmic reticulum. Associated with lipid droplets. Dissociates from the Golgi early on in mitosis and localizes to the cleavage furrow and midbody during cytokinesis.

| Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitous. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10022914}.
