Ubiquitous. Detected in placenta, fetal liver, kidney, pancreas, heart and skeletal muscle. Highly expressed in testis. Detected in spleen, thymus, colon, ovary, small intestine, prostate and peripheral blood leukocytes.
Nucleus. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Colocalizes with the cytoplasmic intermediate filament system during the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Present in the perinuclear region at S phase and in the nucleus at late G2.
