Predicted to enable SNAP receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in retrograde vesicle-mediated transport, Golgi to endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to act upstream of or within endoplasmic reticulum tubular network organization and regulation of ER to Golgi vesicle-mediated transport. Located in several cellular components, including COPI-coated vesicle; Golgi apparatus; and endoplasmic reticulum. Part of SNARE complex. Orthologous to human USE1 (unconventional SNARE in the ER 1).
