Highly expressed in heart and moderately expressed in placenta, lung, and skeletal muscle.
Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Membrane, caveola; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cytoplasm, cytosol. Colocalizes with GLUT4 in intracellular tubulovesicular structures that are associated with cortical F-actin. Colocalizes with FER1L5 at plasma membrane in myoblasts and myotubes.
