Tissue SpecificityUbiquitously expressed (at protein level) (PubMed:23223568). Highly expressed in all the regions of central nerve system except the spinal cord. Also expressed at high level in liver and testis. In fetus, it is weakly expressed in all organs except brain (PubMed:14522954, PubMed:15580268). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14522954, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15580268, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23223568}.

Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15580268}. Note=Colocalizes with the actin cytoskeleton in membrane ruffles and lamellipodia. Diffusely distributed throughout the cytosol during pro-metaphase and metaphase. Detected at the dynamic cell poles during telophase. Detected at the cleavage furrow and contractile ring during cytokinesis. Transiently detected at the plasma membrane in late stages of cytokinesis. Detected at the midbody. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15580268}.
