Plays a role in endocytosis and regulates internalization of plasma membrane proteins. Overexpression impairs internalization of SLC2A1/GLUT1 and TRPV4 and increases the levels of SLC2A1/GLUT1 and TRPV4 at the cell membrane. Inhibits the TRPV4 calcium channel activity (By similarity).
Cytoplasm . Cell membrane ; Peripheral membrane protein ; Cytoplasmic side . Detected at the inner aspect of the plasma membrane in myotubes. .
Widely expressed, with highest levels in heart and skeletal muscle, intermediate levels in placenta, liver and pancreas, and very low levels in brain, lung and kidney.
