Subcellular location [CC]Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21392185}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21392185}. Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21392185}. Note=Predominantly localized in a juxtanuclear region. Colocalizes with SLC9A3 in the juxtanuclear region and at the plasma membrane (By similarity). Exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm through a nuclear export signal (NES) pathway. May shuttle between nucleus and cytoplasm. {ECO:0000250}.
