Subcellular Location: Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network. Cell membrane ; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Cell membrane ; Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor . Membrane raft. Cytoplasm. Apical cell membrane . Shuttles between the cell membrane, where it is present predominantly in membrane/lipid rafts, and the trans-Golgi network. Forms a complex with MMP14 and localizes to the cytoplasm.; Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network . Late endosome . (Microbial infection) HIV-1 VPU and HIV-2 ENV can target it to the trans-Golgi network thus sequestering it away from virus assembly sites on the cell membrane. Targeted to late endosomes upon KSHV infection and subsequent ubiquitination. .
Expression: Predominantly expressed in liver, lung, heart and placenta. Lower levels in pancreas, kidney, skeletal muscle and brain. Overexpressed in multiple myeloma cells. Highly expressed during B-cell development, from pro-B precursors to plasma cells. Highly expressed on T-cells, monocytes, NK cells and dendritic cells (at protein level).
