Entrez Summary: The protein encoded by this gene facilitates peroxisomal proliferation and interacts with PEX19. The encoded protein is found in the peroxisomal membrane. Several transcript variants, some protein-coding and some not protein-coding, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012].
UniProt Summary: Involved in peroxisomal proliferation (PubMed:9792670). May regulate peroxisome division by recruiting the dynamin-related GTPase DNM1L to the peroxisomal membrane (PubMed:12618434). Promotes membrane protrusion and elongation on the peroxisomal surface (PubMed:20826455). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12618434, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20826455, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9792670}.
