This gene encodes a transmembrane protein belonging to anfamily of proteins containing TLC domains, which are postulated tonfunction in lipid synthesis, transport, or sensing. The proteinnlocalizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and may recyclenbetween the ER and ER-Golgi intermediate compartment. Mutations innthis gene are associated with progressive epilepsy with mentalnretardation (EMPR), which is a subtype of neuronal ceroidnlipofuscinoses (NCL). Patients with mutations in this gene havenaltered levels of sphingolipid and phospholipids in the brain.
