Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable ubiquitin-like protein ligase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of exosomal secretion; protein transport to vacuole involved in ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process via the multivesicular body sorting pathway; and regulation of extracellular exosome assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein transport. Predicted to be located in cytosol and intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be part of ESCRT-0 complex. Is expressed in hippocampus; sciatic nerve; and spinal cord. Orthologous to human STAM (signal transducing adaptor molecule).
