Subcellular location [CC]Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10777697, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28144995}. Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19464326}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10777697}. Note=Cytoplasmic in interphase cells. Colocalizes with mitotic spindles in mitotic cells. Translocates to the nucleus during heat shock and resides in sub-nuclear structures known as SC35 speckles or nuclear splicing speckles. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19464326}.
