Expressed in heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas.
Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cell cortex. Nucleus. Lipid droplet. Found in the nuclei of some aggressive B-cell lymphoma cell lines as well as in the nuclei of both resting and activated T- and B-lymphocytes. Found in punctate nuclear body protein complexes. Ubiquitination may occur in the cytoplasm and sumoylation in the nucleus. RSAD2/viperin recruits it to the lipid droplet (By similarity).
