Function Appears to modulate insulin sensitivity (By similarity). By generating PPi, plays a role in regulating pyrophosphate levels, and functions in bone mineralization and soft tissue calcification. PPi inhibits mineralization by binding to nascent hydroxyapatite (HA) crystals, thereby preventing further growth of these crystals. Preferentially hydrolyzes ATP, but can also hydrolyze other nucleoside 5' triphosphates such as GTP, CTP, TTP and UTP to their corresponding monophosphates with release of pyrophosphate and diadenosine polyphosphates, and also 3',5'-cAMP to AMP. May also be involved in the regulation of the availability of nucleotide sugars in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi, and the regulation of purinergic signaling. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1647027, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9662402}.
Subcellular Location Cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Basolateral cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Secreted. Note=Targeted to the basolateral membrane in polarized epithelial cells and in hepatocytes, and to matrix vesicles in osteoblasts. In bile duct cells and cancer cells, located to the apical cytoplasmic side (By similarity). The proteolytically processed form is secreted. {ECO:0000250}.
Tissue Specificity Selectively expressed on the surface of antibody-secreting cells.
