Function Plays a role in phagocytosis by macrophages of apoptotic cells. Binds APOA1 and may function in apolipoprotein-mediated phospholipid efflux from cells. May also mediate cholesterol efflux. May regulate cellular ceramide homeostasis during keratinocytes differentiation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12917409, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15550377, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16908670}.
Subcellular Location Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Endosome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Localizes to cell membrane ruffles and phagocytic cups of macrophages stimulated with C1q or apoptotic cells. Localizes to the cytoplasm of resting macrophages, probably in Golgi and endosomes. Localizes to the apical brush border of cells in the proximal tubules of kidney.
Tissue Specificity Widely expressed with higher expression in brain, lung, adrenal gland and spleen (at protein level). Highly expressed in spleen and hematopoietic tissues. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11435699, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12917409, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15550377}.
