DESCRIPTION

Also known as ESYT2_MOUSE, Esyt2, D12Ertd551e, Fam62b. Tethers the endoplasmic reticulum to the cell membrane and promotes the formation of appositions between the endoplasmic reticulum and the cell membrane. Binds glycerophospholipids in a barrel-like domain and may play a role in cellular lipid transport. Plays a role in FGF signaling via its role in the rapid internalization of FGFR1 that has been activated by FGF1 binding; this occurs most likely via the AP-2 complex (By similarity). Promotes the localization of SACM1L at endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane contact sites (EPCS) (By similarity). Homodimer. Interacts with ESYT1 and ESYT3. Interacts with FGFR1 that has been activated by FGF1 binding. Interacts with the AP-2 complex; identified in a complex with the AP-2 complex and FGFR1 (By similarity).
