Function |
May play a role in vesicle trafficking. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11511104, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19289470}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10523508, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19289470}; Single-pass type IV membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10523508, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19289470}. Note=Present in the plasma membrane and in intracellular vesicles, together with SNARE proteins. May also associate with the cytoskeleton. Colocalizes with OCLN at the tight junction in polarized epithelial cells.
