Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

May have a regulatory role in the membrane interactions during trafficking of synaptic vesicles at the active zone of the synapse. It binds acidic phospholipids with a specificity that requires the presence of both an acidic head group and a diacyl backbone (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Localization

Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, chromaffin granule membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Note=Synaptic vesicles and chromaffin granules. {ECO:0000250}.
