Predicted to act upstream of or within innate immune response. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane; melanosome; and nuclear envelope. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; nasal cavity epithelium; retina; submandibular gland primordium; and trigeminal nerve. Orthologous to human TMEM33 (transmembrane protein 33).
