In testis, expressed in polar epithelia and Sertoli cells but not in vascular endothelia. The protein is detected in stomach, duodenum, pancreas, liver, fetal brain, carcinomas, lens-forming cells, fibroblasts, lymphocytes, lymphoma cells, erythroleukemia cells but not in endothelium of vessels, epidermis, intercalated disks, Purkinje fiber cells of the heart and lymph node.
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell junction, tight junction. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cell junction. Nucleus, nucleoplasm. Cytoplasmic face of adhesion plaques (major) and nucleoplasm (minor) (in cells with TJ). Nucleoplasm (in cells without TJ). Nuclear bodies of heat-stressed cells. Colocalizes with HSF1 in nuclear stress bodies upon heat shock (PubMed:14707147).
