Note=After ligand activation, translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. In the presence of NR1D1 shows a time-dependent subcellular localization, localizing to the cytoplasm at ZT8 and to the nucleus at ZT20 (By similarity). Lacks this diurnal pattern of localization in the absence of NR1D1, localizing to both nucleus and the cytoplasm at ZT8 and ZT20 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P06537, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18838540, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27120390, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8621628}.;
