Expressed in brain. Expressed in the spinal dorsal horn with especially strong expression in lamina IIi; found in excitory synaptic boutons and in ependymal cells (at protein level).
Cytoplasm. Cell projection, dendrite. Cell projection, axon. Cell membrane. Colocalizes with ADORA2A and/or mGluR5/GRM5 at the plasma membrane (PubMed:17689978, PubMed:19694902). Found in neuronal somata (PubMed:26843217). Detected in the cytoplasm of striatal neurons, at postsynaptic sites, filling dendritic shafts and spines, and at presynaptic sites, filling axon terminals (By similarity).
