Expressed in the brain, liver, testis, small intestine, colon, thymus and adrenal gland (PubMed:11852086, PubMed:12060745).
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasm. Has to be associated with KCNB1 or possibly another partner to get inserted in the plasma membrane (PubMed:12060745). Colocalizes with KCNB1 at the plasma membrane (PubMed:12060745, PubMed:19074135). Remains intracellular in the absence of KCNB1 (PubMed:12060745).
