    Summary
    Enables sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase activator activity. Involved in several processes, including cornified envelope assembly; positive regulation of immune effector process; and positive regulation of protein localization. Located in several cellular components, including basolateral plasma membrane; cytoplasmic vesicle; and lamellipodium. Part of SNARE complex. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynapse. Implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
