The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the SAC
domain-containing protein gene family. The SAC domain,
approximately 400 amino acids in length and consisting of seven
conserved motifs, has been shown to possess phosphoinositide
phosphatase activity. The yeast homolog, Sac1p, is involved in the
regulation of various phosphoinositides, and affects diverse
cellular functions such as actin cytoskeleton organization, Golgi
function, and maintenance of vacuole morphology. Membrane-bound
phosphoinositides function as signaling molecules and play a key
role in vesicle trafficking in eukaryotic cells. Mutations in this
gene have been associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, type
