Expressed in stomach, liver, lung, kidney, prostate, testis, thyroid gland, adrenal gland, brain, heart, skeletal muscle, colon, spleen, small intestine, placenta, blood leukocyte and mammary epithelial cells. Expressed in undifferentiated ES cells. Expressed in blood islands and nascent blood vessels derived from differentiated ES cells into embryoid bodies (BD). Expressed in endothelial cells. Not detected in brain. Expressed in brain tumors (at protein level). Expressed in brain. Highly expressed in breast cancers and in glioma cell lines.
Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Localizes in the cytoplasm in stationary cells. Translocates from the cytoplasm to the leading edge in motile cells. Colocalizes with microtubules and intermediate filaments in both stationary and motile cells (By similarity). Associates with chromatin. Recruited to estrogen receptor-induced promoters in a PELP1-dependent manner.
