Function

Lipid transporter that specifically mediates export of sphingosine-1-phosphate in red blood cells and platelets. Sphingosine-1-phosphate is a signaling sphingolipid and its export from red blood cells into in the plasma is required for red blood cell morphology. Sphingosine-1-phosphate export from platelets is required for platelet aggregation and thrombus formation. Mediates the export of different sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) species, including S1P(d18:0) (sphinganine 1-phosphate), S1P (d18:1) (sphing-4-enine 1-phosphate) and S1P (d18:2) (sphinga-4E,14Z-dienine-1-phosphate). Release of sphingosine-1-phosphate is facilitated by a proton gradient. In contrast, cations, such as sodium, are not required to drive sphingosine-1-phosphate transport. In addition to export, also able to mediate S1P import. Does not transport lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC)
