Subcellular location [CC]Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29469807};
Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255}. Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29469807};
Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255}. Cytoplasmic vesicle, autophagosome {ECO:0000269|PubMed:31222192}. Note=In lipid-poor conditions localizes to the ER membrane and is recruited to endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane contact sites (EPCS) in response to excess cholesterol in the PM (By similarity). Localizes to distinct EPCS than GRAMD2A and ESYT2/3 (PubMed:29469807). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8VEF1, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29469807}.
