Highly expressed in placenta, muscle, kidney and testis. Moderately expressed in heart, brain, lung, liver and intestine. Isoform 2 is widely expressed and expressed in fetal and adult testes, and spermatozoa.
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, stress fiber. Cytoplasm, cell cortex. Cell junction. Nucleus. Associated with the cortical actin cytoskeleton structures in terminal web and cell-cell adhesion sites (By similarity). Highly expressed at the ectoplasmic specialization, an actin-rich cell junction specific to the testis (By similarity). Predominantly nuclear in nonconfluent cells (PubMed:16729964).
