Comment typeDescription
Alternative ProductsEvent=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=Q9NRQ2-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=Q9NRQ2-2; Sequence=VSP_042931, VSP_042932; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
CofactorName=Ca(2+); Xref=ChEBI
DomainThe N-terminal proline-rich domain (PRD) is required for phospholipid scramblase activity.
FunctionMay mediate accelerated ATP-independent bidirectional transbilayer migration of phospholipids upon binding calcium ions that results in a loss of phospholipid asymmetry in the plasma membrane. May play a central role in the initiation of fibrin clot formation, in the activation of mast cells and in the recognition of apoptotic and injured cells by the reticuloendothelial system.
