Expressed in testis and thymus. Expressed in the B-cell lines WI-L2-NS and Namalwa (at protein level).
Nucleus. Chromosome. Chromosome, centromere. In meiotic chromosomes, localized along axial elements in prophase from the leptotene to diplotene stages. At later prophase stages, diakinesis and metaphase I, localized along interstitial axes of chromosomes including both centromere and arm regions. No longer detected in arm regions in anaphase I but persists on centromere regions until metaphase II. Localised to centromeres and spindle poles in endopolyploid tumor cells.
