Disease Ceroid lipofuscinosis, neuronal, 3 (CLN3) [MIM:204200]: A form of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis. Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses are progressive neurodegenerative, lysosomal storage diseases characterized by intracellular accumulation of autofluorescent liposomal material, and clinically by seizures, dementia, visual loss, and/or cerebral atrophy. The hallmark of CLN3 is the ultrastructural pattern of lipopigment with a fingerprint profile, which can have 3 different appearances: pure within a lysosomal residual body; in conjunction with curvilinear or rectilinear profiles; and as a small component within large membrane-bound lysosomal vacuoles. The combination of fingerprint profiles within lysosomal vacuoles is a regular feature of blood lymphocytes from patients with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21990111, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9311735, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9490299}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Function Involved in microtubule-dependent, anterograde transport of late endosomes and lysosomes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22261744}.
Ptm Farnesylation is important for trafficking to lysosomes.
Ptm Highly glycosylated. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17286803}.
Similarity Belongs to the battenin family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular Location Lysosome membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17286803, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17897319}; Multi- pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17286803, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17897319}. Late endosome {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17286803}.
Subunit Interacts with DCTN1 and KIF3A. Interacts with RAB7A and RILP. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22261744}.
