Function SNARE involved in targeting and fusion of ER-derived transport vesicles with the Golgi complex as well as Golgi-derived retrograde transport vesicles with the ER. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15272311}.
Subcellular Location Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type IV membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment membrane {ECO:0000250}. Golgi apparatus, cis-Golgi network membrane {ECO:0000250}. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane {ECO:0000250}. Melanosome {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081065}. Note=Concentrated most in the intermediate compartment/cis-Golgi network and the cis-Golgi cisternae 1 and 2. Greatly reduced in concentration at the trans end of the Golgi apparatus. Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV.
