Cytoplasm. Early endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Late endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Midbody, Midbody ring. Nucleus. Mainly cytoplasmic. Membrane-associated when active and soluble when inactive. Nuclear localization is cell cycle-dependent. Interaction with CEP55 is required for localization to the midbody during cytokinesis.






PMID: 9019400 by Li L., et al. The TSG101 tumor susceptibility gene is located in chromosome 11 band p15 and is mutated in human breast cancer.
PMID: 9366528 by Gayther S.A., et al. Aberrant splicing of the TSG101 and FHIT genes occurs frequently in multiple malignancies and in normal tissues and mimics alterations previously described in tumours.
