Acetyl-CoA transporter that mediates active acetyl-CoA import through the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane into the ER lumen where specific ER-based acetyl-CoA:lysine acetyltransferases are responsible for the acetylation of ER-based protein substrates, such as BACE1 (PubMed:20826464, PubMed:24828632). Necessary for O-acetylation of gangliosides (PubMed:9096318).
