Widely expressed with highest levels in brain, liver, pancreas, colon and spleen.
Nucleus. Endoplasmic reticulum. Cytoplasm. Predominantly nuclear where it localizes to heterochromatin. Also cytoplasmic where it is found at the outer surface of the endoplasmic reticulum (By similarity). Shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm. May be transported into the nucleus by the nuclear import protein TNPO2/TRN2 or by APOBEC1.
