| Post Translational Modifications | Cleaved by calpain in a caspase- and calcium influx-dependent manner during platelet apoptosis leading to a 100 kDa polypeptide. |
| Function | Catalytic component of a P4-ATPase flippase complex which catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled to the transport of aminophospholipids from the outer to the inner leaflet of various membranes and ensures the maintenance of asymmetric distribution of phospholipids. Phospholipid translocation also seems to be implicated in vesicle formation and in uptake of lipid signaling molecules. In vitro, its ATPase activity is selectively and stereospecifically stimulated by phosphatidylserine (PS). The flippase complex ATP8A1:TMEM30A seems to play a role in regulation of cell migration probably involving flippase-mediated translocation of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) at the cell membrane. Acts as aminophospholipid translocase at the cell membrane in neuronal cells. |
