Detected in erythrocytes (at protein level). Expressed at variable levels in many human tissues.
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Melanosome. Localizes primarily at the cell surface (PubMed:18245775, PubMed:19449892, PubMed:23219802, PubMed:25982116, PubMed:24847886). Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV (PubMed:17081065).
