Description
Predicted to have lipid transfer activity; phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate binding activity; and vitamin E binding activity. Involved in central nervous system development and chordate embryonic development. Predicted to localize to late endosome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial isolated deficiency of vitamin E. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; immature eye; liver; neural tube; and tail bud. Orthologous to human TTPA (alpha tocopherol transfer protein).
