Background
This gene encodes a member of the prominin family of pentaspan membrane glycoproteins. The encoded protein localizes to basal epithelial cells and may be involved in the organization of plasma membrane microdomains. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Function
PTM:Glycosylated.,similarity:Belongs to the prominin family.,subcellular location:Colocalizes with PROM1. Associates with membrane in a cholesterol-dependent manner. Localizes to the apical and basolateral membranes of epithelial cells.,subunit:Binds cholesterol.,tissue specificity:Present in saliva within small membrane particles (at protein level). Expressed in kidney, prostate, trachea, esophagus, salivary gland, thyroid gland, mammary gland adrenal gland, placenta, stomach, spinal cord and liver. In submucosal tumor, expressed in spindle-shaped or stellate stromal cells. Expressed in prostate cancer cell lines.,
