Note=Predominantly nuclear in macrophages, stimulation of IL17RB with its ligand IL17E induces accumulation in the cytoplasm (PubMed:22070932). Predominantly cytoplasmic when unphosphorylated and localizes to the nucleus following phosphorylation by HIPK2 (PubMed:33591310). Localizes to stress granules under cellular stress conditions (PubMed:17984221). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17984221, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22070932, ECO:0000269|PubMed:33591310}.
