Summary: Predicted to enable ATP binding activity and metal ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including amyloid fibril formation; melanocyte differentiation; and melanosome organization. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in melanosome. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; immature eye; neural crest; notochord; and pigment cell. Orthologous to human PMEL (premelanosome protein).
