Background This gene encodes a protein that binds the plus-end directed microtubule motor protein kinesin, together with the lysosomal GTPase Arl8, and is required for lysosomes to distribute away from the microtubule-organizing center. The encoded protein belongs to the multisubunit BLOC-one-related complex that regulates lysosome positioning. It binds a Salmonella effector protein called Salmonella induced filament A and is a critical host determinant in Salmonella pathogenesis. It has a domain architecture consisting of an N-terminal RPIP8, UNC-14, and NESCA (RUN) domain that binds kinesin-1 as well as the lysosomal GTPase Arl8, and a C-terminal pleckstrin homology domain that binds the Salmonella induced filament A effector protein. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene lead to abnormal localization of lysosomes, impaired autophagy flux and are associated with recessive dilated cardiomyopathy and left ventricular noncompaction.

Function Plays a role in lysosomes movement and localization at the cell periphery acting as an effector of ARL8B. Required for ARL8B to exert its effects on lysosome location, recruits kinesin-1 to lysosomes and hence direct their movement toward microtubule plus ends. Binding to ARL8B provides a link from lysosomal membranes to plus-end-directed motility (PubMed:22172677, PubMed:24088571, PubMed:25898167, PubMed:28325809). Critical factor involved in NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Drives the polarization of cytolytic granules and microtubule-organizing centers (MTOCs) toward the immune synapse between effector NK lymphocytes and target cells (PubMed:24088571). Required for maintenance of the Golgi apparatus organization (PubMed:22172677). May play a role in membrane tubulation (PubMed:15905402). [UniProt]
