Serine peptidase whose precise substrate specificity remains unclear . Does not cleave peptides after a arginine or lysine residue . Regulates trans-Golgi network morphology and sorting by regulating the membrane binding of the AP-1 complex . May play a role in the regulation of synaptic vesicle exocytosis .
Cytoplasm, cytosol . Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network . Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton . Golgi apparatus . Nucleus . Co-localizes with AP-1 in the trans-Golgi network (By similarity). Co-localizes with MAP2 and ACTB on the cytoskeleton (By similarity). Co-localizes with STX6 and GOSR2 at the Golgi apparatus (By similarity). .
