Inclusion body (IB) resident protein that interacts strongly with lipid droplet (LD) proteins. Involved in LD-mediated IB clearing after protein folding stress, probably by enabling access to the IBs of an LD-stored soluble sterol derivative that acts as chaperone in inclusion clearing. Interacts with lipid droplet proteins. Localized exclusively in cytoplasmic inclusion bodies under protein folding stress conditions. Belongs to the IML2 family.
