Location: | 15q15.1 |

Highly expressed in testis, where it is localized in germ cells, in particular in spermatocytes and in the pre-acrosome of round spermatids. Detected in the acrosome of ejaculated spermatozoa. Detected in adult thymus, bone marrow, colon, small intestine, appendix and placenta, and in fetal liver and thymus.
Nucleus. Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore. Weakly expressed in interphase nuclei. Expression increases from prophase to late anaphase, but greatly diminishes from the telophase and cytokinesis to early G1 phase of cell cycle.
