Substrate In Vivo Evidence:
1. Based on structural features and cholesterol-responsive regulation, this protein is potentially involved in macrophage lipid homeostasis. Kaminski, WE et al. Biochem Biophys Res Comm 2001 Aug 3, 285(5):1295-01 PMID 11478798
Tissue Distribution Evidence:
1. Cloned from human macrophages. Ubiquitously expressed with highest levels in liver, lung, heart, brain, and ovaries (mRNA dot blot). Kaminski, WE et al. Biochem Biophys Res Comm 2001 Aug 3, 285(5):1295-01 PMID 11478798.
Transmembrane prediction: Non-synonymous amino acid changes shown in red, indels (insertions and deletions) in blue, and synonymous changes in green. Exon(s) indicated by black outlines.
