Note=Dispersed throughout the nucleoplasm, in PML/POD/ND10 nuclear bodies, and in nucleoli (Probable). Colocalizes with histone H3.3, ATRX, HIRA and ASF1A at PML-nuclear bodies (PubMed:12953102, PubMed:14990586, PubMed:23222847, PubMed:24200965). Colocalizes with a subset of interphase centromeres, but is absent from mitotic centromeres (PubMed:9645950). Detected in cytoplasmic punctate structures (PubMed:11842083). Translocates from the nucleus to the cytoplasm upon glucose deprivation or oxidative stress (PubMed:12968034). Colocalizes with RASSF1 in the nucleus (PubMed:18566590). Colocalizes with USP7 in nucleoplasma with accumulation in speckled structures (PubMed:16845383). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11842083, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12953102, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12968034, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14990586, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16845383, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18566590, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23222847, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24200965, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9645950, ECO:0000305|PubMed:10669754}.;
