Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable transmembrane transporter binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of L-glutamate import across plasma membrane. Acts upstream of or within with a negative effect on L-glutamate import across plasma membrane and protein localization to plasma membrane. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including L-glutamate transmembrane transport; cellular response to oxidative stress; and glutathione metabolic process. Is active in plasma membrane and presynaptic cytosol. Is expressed in cerebral cortex subventricular zone; cerebral cortex ventricular layer; and cortical plate. Orthologous to human ARL6IP5 (ADP ribosylation factor like GTPase 6 interacting protein 5).
