Summary: Predicted to enable lipid transfer activity; phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate binding activity; and vitamin E binding activity. Acts upstream of or within central nervous system development and chordate embryonic development. Predicted to be active in late endosome. Is expressed in several structures, including immature eye; liver; nervous system; tail bud; and yolk syncytial layer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial isolated deficiency of vitamin E. Orthologous to human TTPA (alpha tocopherol transfer protein).

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.
