This gene encodes a type 2 integral membrane protein that binds A- and B-type laminins. The encoded protein localizes to the inner nuclear membrane and may be involved in maintaining the attachment of the nuclear membrane to the nuclear lamina during cell division. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2012]
Function:
Binds to A- and B-type lamins. Possible role in membrane attachment and assembly of the nuclear lamina.
Subcellular Location:
Nucleus inner membrane.
Post-translational modifications:
Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.
Similarity:
Belongs to the TOR1AIP family.
