Summary: Enables sphingolipid transporter activity. Involved in several processes, including regulation of T cell migration; sensory perception of sound; and sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including lymph node development; lymphocyte homeostasis; and regulation of eye pigmentation. Predicted to be located in endosome membrane and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in membrane. Is expressed in jaw bone; nervous system; sensory organ; and spleen. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 115. Orthologous to human SPNS2 (SPNS lysolipid transporter 2, sphingosine-1-phosphate).

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.
