Protein
CDC50 family protein chat-1
Organism
Caenorhabditis elegans
Function
Probable chaperone protein for the phospholipid-transporting ATPase tat-1. Regulates cell membrane structure and function. Plays a role in maintaining the membrane phosphatidylserine asymmetry and the formation of the tubular membrane structure. Involved in membrane trafficking and is specifically involved in the recycling and degradation of endocytic cargo and this is likely with the phospholipid-transporting ATPase tat-1.
Similarity
Belongs to the CDC50/LEM3 family.
