Observed Band(KD):15kD
Background:tissue specificity:Expression is restricted to melanoma and melanocyte cell lines and retina.,
Function:tissue specificity:Expression is restricted to melanoma and melanocyte cell lines and retina.,
Subcellular Location:Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type III membrane protein. Golgi apparatus. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane. Melanosome. Also found in small vesicles and tubules dispersed over the entire cytoplasm. A small fraction of the protein is inserted into the membrane in an inverted orientation. Inversion of membrane topology results in the relocalization of the protein from a predominant Golgi/post-Golgi area to the endoplasmic reticulum. Melanoma cells expressing the protein with an inverted membrane topology are more effectively recognized by specific cytolytic T-lymphocytes than those expressing the protein in its native membrane orientation.
Expression:Expression is restricted to melanoma and melanocyte cell lines and retina.
