Function FUNCTION: Involved in melanosome biogenesis by ensuring the stability of GPR143. Plays a vital role in the expression, stability, trafficking, and processing of melanocyte protein PMEL, which is critical to the formation of stage II melanosomes. {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:15695812, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:19717472}.
Subellular location SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type III membrane protein. Golgi apparatus. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane. Melanosome. Note=Also found in small vesicles and tubules dispersed over the entire cytoplasm. A small fraction of the protein is inserted into the membrane in an inverted orientation. Inversion of membrane topology results in the relocalization of the protein from a predominant Golgi/post-Golgi area to the endoplasmic reticulum. Melanoma cells expressing the protein with an inverted membrane topology are more effectively recognized by specific cytolytic T-lymphocytes than those expressing the protein in its native membrane orientation.
Tissues TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expression is restricted to melanoma and melanocyte cell lines and retina.
Structure SUBUNIT: Interacts with PMEL. Interacts with GPR143. {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:15695812, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:19717472, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:20417641}.
Post-translational modification PTM: Acylated. {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:12191019}.
