Function | Mediates the transfer of lipids between membranes at organelle contact sites (By similarity). Binds phosphatidylinositol 3- phosphate (By similarity). Functions as a tethering factor in the slow endocytic recycling pathway, to assist traffic between early and recycling endosomes (PubMed:30962439, PubMed:24334764, PubMed:32375900). Involved in the transport of proacrosomal vesicles to the nuclear dense lamina (NDL) during spermatid development (By similarity). Plays a role in the assembly of the Golgi apparatus, possibly by mediating trafficking to the Golgi membrane (PubMed:21865173). Plays a role in the development of the nervous system, and may be required for neuron projection development (PubMed:25492866, PubMed:32560273). May also play a role during adipose tissue development (PubMed:26358774). Required for maintenance of the ocular lens (By similarity). |

Note=Localizes to proacrosomal and acrosomal vesicles and not the Golgi apparatus during acrosome formation. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q80TY5} |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed (PubMed:12730828). There is apparent differential expression of different transcripts (PubMed:12730828, PubMed:19006247). In fetal brain, lung, liver, and kidney, two transcripts of 2 and 5 kb are identified (PubMed:12730828) These transcripts are also seen in all adult tissues analyzed (PubMed:12730828). A larger transcript (12-14 kb) is expressed in prostate, testis, ovary, and colon in the adult (PubMed:12730828) Expression is very low in adult brain tissue (PubMed:12730828) Expressed in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PubMed:33025479). Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed in brain and retina (PubMed:12730828, PubMed:19006247). Isoform 2 is expressed ubiquitously (PubMed:12730828, PubMed:19006247). |

Background
COH1 Antibody: COH1 (Cohen syndrome protein 1), also known as VPS13B (vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 13B) or CHS1, belongs to the VPS13 family and may function in vesicle-mediated transport and sorting of proteins within the cell. COH1 is widely expressed and multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Cohen syndrome. COH1 is a Golgi-localized peripheral membrane protein and plays a critical role in Golgi (re)assembly.
