Function
Mediates the transfer of lipids between membranes at organelle contact sites (By similarity). Binds phospholipids . Required for the formation or stabilization of ER-mitochondria contact sites which enable transfer of lipids between the ER and mitochondria . Negatively regulates lipid droplet size and motility . Required for efficient lysosomal protein degradation .
