Subcellular location [CC]Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15654338};
Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15654338}. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15654338};
Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15654338}. Note=The formation of antiparallel homo- and heterodimers suggest that N- and C-terminus can both localize in the cytoplasmic and extracellular parts, depending on the context (PubMed:20371771). Upon insulin stimulation, it is redistributed into spotty structures throughout the cytoplasm. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20371771}.
