Most abundant in skeletal muscle, followed by brain, liver and pancreas, with lower amounts in lung, kidney, placenta and heart. Expressed in the frontal lobe cortex as well as in the temporal, parietal, and occipital lobes (PubMed:27173016, PubMed:26505888). Expressed in most lung cancer cell lines tested.
Lysosome membrane. Localization to lysosomes is amino acid-independent.
