Detected in intestinal microvilli, hair cell stereocilia, and fibroblast filopodia, in spleen and other lymph node-containing organs. Expressed in peripheral blood T- lymphocytes, neutrophils, monocytes, B-lymphocytes, and myeloid cells.
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell junction. Cell projection. Cell projection, ruffle membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Relocalizes to the immunological synapse between peripheral blood T-lymphocytes and antibody-presenting cells in response to costimulation through TCR/CD3 and CD2 or CD28 (PubMed:17294403). Associated with the actin cytoskeleton at membrane ruffles. Relocalizes to actin-rich cell projections upon serine phosphorylation (PubMed:16636079).
