The function of STOML1 (stomatin like 1, Ensembl gene identifier ENSG00000067221) is as follows. May play a role in cholesterol transfer to late endosomes (PubMed:19696025). May play a role in modulating membrane acid-sensing ion channels. Can specifically inhibit proton-gated current of ASIC1 isoform 1. Can increase inactivation speed of ASIC3. May be involved in regulation of proton sensing in dorsal root ganglions (By similarity). May play a role in protecting FBXW7 isoform 3 from degradation (PubMed:23082202). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8CI66, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19696025, ECO:0000305|PubMed:23082202}.
