Predominantly found in the TGN and relocalized to the plasma membrane in response to elevated copper levels. Targeting into melanosomes is regulated by BLOC-1 complex (By similarity). In response to glutamate, translocates to neuron processes with a minor fraction at extrasynaptic sites (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P70705, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q64430, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9147644}.;
