Highly expressed in the testis (PubMed:25781171). During spermatid development is initially localised to a supra-nuclear region of round spermatids, and is particularly evident at the leading edge of the developing acrosome and acroplaxome. As maturation proceeded and nuclear elongation initiated, LRGUK moves distally to ultimately reside on the microtubules of the manchette. LRGUK is also evident in the sperm basal body and the sperm tail (PubMed:25781171).
