    text
  • MMD and MMD2 are exclusively localized in the Golgi apparatus
  • basic FUNCTION
  • acting as an ion channel protein in maturing macrophages
  • EMT initiates a PAQR11-mediated Golgi compaction process that drives metastasis
  • regulates monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation
  • has a function in monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation and such function is related to autoimmune disease
  • regulates lipolysis of adipose tissue and affects high-fat diet-induced obesity
