    text
  • present in the membrane of mature red cells
  • TMEM30A associated with and recruited ATP8A1 to the plasma membrane
  • basic FUNCTION
  • aminophospholipid transporting enzyme, which helps to maintain phospholipid asymmetry in cell membranes
  • having a flippase activity and can move phosphatidyl-serine molecules across the leaflets of the vesicle membrane in presence of ATP
  • plays a crucial role in plasma membrane-aminophospholipid translocase activity in the neuronal and hippocampal cells
  • plays a critical role in the control of cell migration (pMID: 23269685)
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • phospholipid flippase complex of ATP8A1 and TMEM30A plays a major role in cell migration, suggesting that the flippase-mediated translocation of phosphatidylethanolamine at the plasma membrane is involved in the formation of membrane ruffles to promote cell migration
