Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables protein domain specific binding activity. Involved in several processes, including autophagosome maturation; protein stabilization; and protein targeting to lysosome involved in chaperone-mediated autophagy. Acts upstream of or within muscle cell cellular homeostasis. Located in bounding membrane of organelle. Is active in lysosome. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; egg cylinder; heart valve; oocyte; and sensory organ. Used to study Danon disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Danon disease and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human LAMP2 (lysosomal associated membrane protein 2).
