Function: May play a role in early endosome fusion upstream of RAB5, hence regulating receptor trafficking and fluid-phase transport. Enhances cellular sensitivity to TNF-induced apoptosis (PubMed:18288467).
Cellular location: Early endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum. Note=Colocalizes with EEA1 and RAB5 at endosomal membrane fusion hot spots. May translocate to the endoplasmic reticulum in the early phase of apoptosis (PubMed:18288467).
Tissue specificity: Expressed in placenta, ovary and small intestine, as well as in heart and pancreas. Also expressed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and dendritic cells.
