Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is similar to bovine and porcine proteins which accelerate transfer of certain glycosphingolipids and glyceroglycolipids between membranes. It is thought to be a cytoplasmic protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Comments

Comment Type Description
Function Accelerates the intermembrane transfer of various glycolipids. Catalyzes the transfer of various glycosphingolipids between membranes but does not catalyze the transfer of phospholipids. May be involved in the intracellular translocation of glucosylceramides. {ECO
Similarity Belongs to the GLTP family.
Subcellular Location Cytoplasm .
Subunit Monomer. {ECO
Tissue Specificity Detected in fibroblasts (at protein level). Detected in fibroblasts and in various cancer cell lines.
