Facts about Lipopolysaccharide-induced tumor necrosis factor-alpha factor.
Helps recruit the ESCRT complex components TSG101, HGS and STAM to cytoplasmic membranes (PubMed:23166352). Probably plays a role in regulating protein degradation via its interaction with NEDD4 (PubMed:15776429).

Ubiquitously and abundantly expressed. Expressed predominantly in the placenta, peripheral blood leukocytes, lymph nodes and spleen.
Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Lysosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Early endosome membrane. Late endosome membrane. Endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Golgi apparatus membrane. Associated with membranes of lysosomes, early and late endosomes (PubMed:11274176, PubMed:27927196, PubMed:27582497). Can translocate from the cytoplasm into the nucleus (PubMed:15793005). Detected at Schmidt-Lanterman incisures and in nodal regions of myelinating Schwann cells (By similarity).
