Predicted to be involved in protein maturation and triglyceride metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including positive regulation of lipoprotein lipase activity; protein glycosylation in Golgi; and regulation of lipid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial lipase maturation factor 1 deficiency. Orthologous to human LMF1 (lipase maturation factor 1).
