Subcellular location [CC]Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix, basement membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D3YXG0}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D3YXG0}. Cell junction {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D3YXG0}. Cleavage furrow {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D3YXG0}. Note=Has been detected in the glomerular basement membrane in one study. However, another study found expression in the glomerular mesangial matrix but not in the glomerular basement membrane. The antibody used to determine subcellular location does not distinguish between HMCN1 and HMCN2. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D3YXG0}.
