Function

Lysosomal membrane protein that transports cobalamin (Vitamin B12) from the lysosomal lumen to the cytosol in an ATP-dependent manner (PubMed:22922874, PubMed:28572511, PubMed:31467407, PubMed:33845046). Targeted by LMBRD1 lysosomal chaperone from the endoplasmic reticulum to the lysosomal membrane (PubMed:27456980). Then forms a complex with lysosomal chaperone LMBRD1 and cytosolic MMACHC to transport cobalamin across the lysosomal membrane (PubMed:25535791).

Involvement in disease

Methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblJ

MAHCJ

A disorder of cobalamin metabolism characterized by decreased levels of the coenzymes adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl) and methylcobalamin (MeCbl). Clinical features include feeding difficulties, poor growth, hypotonia, lethargy, anemia, and developmental delay.

None

The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Sequence similarities
