|
| Function |
Involved in maintaining Golgi structure. Stimulates the formation of Golgi stacks and ribbons. Involved in intra-Golgi retrograde transport. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12538640, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15718469}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9915833}; Single-pass type IV membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9915833}. Note=Found throughout the Golgi, both on cisternae and, at higher abundance, on the tubulo- vesicular structures of the cis-Golgi network.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitous. Highly expressed in seminiferous tubules and Leydig cells in testis, and detected at much lower levels in the other tissues tested. Expression is very low or not detectable in spermatozoa. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9915833}.
