What is the function of this protein?
Mediates the transfer of lipids between membranes at organelle contact sites (By similarity).  Binds phospholipids (PubMed:34830155).  Required for the formation or stabilization of ER-mitochondria contact sites which enable transfer of lipids between the ER and mitochondria (PubMed:30741634).  Negatively regulates lipid droplet size and motility (PubMed:30741634).  Required for efficient lysosomal protein degradation (PubMed:30709847).
What are the official names of this protein?
Intermembrane lipid transfer protein VPS13A, Chorea-acanthocytosis protein, Chorein, Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 13A.
What is the protein family that this protein belongs to?
Belongs to the VPS13 family.
What are the subcellular locations of this protein?
Mitochondrion outer membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Lysosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Lipid droplet. Golgi apparatus. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, neuronal dense core vesicle. Note=Localizes at mitochondria- endosomes and mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum contact sites (PubMed:30741634, PubMed:30709847, PubMed:30093493).
