Expressed in adrenal gland, and to a lower extent in liver, skeletal muscle and kidney (especially found in luminal membranes of the urinary tubules, bile caniculi and brush border membranes).
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Predominantly localized at the plasma membrane but also found in intracellular organelles.
