Function | Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-anchored protein that mediates the formation of contact sites between the ER and endosomes via interaction with FFAT motif-containing proteins such as STARD3 or WDR44 (PubMed:33124732, PubMed:32344433). Interacts with STARD3 in a FFAT motif phosphorylation dependent manner (PubMed:33124732). Via interaction with WDR44 participates in neosynthesized protein export (PubMed:32344433). Participates in the endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response (UPR) by inducing ERN1/IRE1 activity (PubMed:16891305, PubMed:20940299). Involved in cellular calcium homeostasis regulation (PubMed:22131369). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type IV membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9P0L0}. Note=Present in mitochondria-associated membranes that are endoplasmic reticulum membrane regions closely apposed to the outer mitochondrial membrane |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitous. Isoform 1 predominates. |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a type IV membraneprotein found in plasma and intracellular vesicle membranes. Theencoded protein is found as a homodimer and as a heterodimer withVAPA. This protein also can interact with VAMP1 and VAMP2 and maybe involved in vesicle trafficking.
