About the gene

Chromosome17: 28724348-28727935
Predicted locationIntracellular, Membrane
Essential geneYes
Protein classEssential proteins, Predicted intracellular proteins, Predicted membrane proteins

Function

Regulates the composition and fluidity of the plasma membrane. Inhibits the incorporation of membrane-fluidizing phospholipids containing omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA) and thereby promotes membrane rigidity. Does not appear to have any effect on LCPUFA synthesis
