Description
Predicted to have lipid transporter activity. Involved in several processes, including cholesterol homeostasis; epiboly involved in gastrulation with mouth forming second; and megakaryocyte development. Predicted to localize to integral component of membrane. Used to study Niemann-Pick disease type C1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Niemann-Pick disease type C1. Is expressed in several structures, including heart; liver; nervous system; pleuroperitoneal region; and yolk syncytial layer. Orthologous to human NPC1 (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1).
