Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: Plays a role in protein ubiquitination, sorting and degradation through its association with VCP (PubMed:27753622). Involved in ubiquitin-mediated membrane proteins trafficking to late endosomes in an ESCRT-dependent manner, and hence plays a role in synaptic vesicle recycling (By similarity). May play a role in macroautophagy, regulating for instance the clearance of damaged lysosomes (PubMed:27753622). Plays a role in cerebellar Purkinje cell development (By similarity). Positively regulates cytosolic and calcium-independent phospholipase A2 activities in a tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha)- or lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-dependent manner, and hence prostaglandin E2 biosynthesis (PubMed:18291623, PubMed:28007986). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P27612, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18291623, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27753622, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28007986}.
