Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q63259}. Endosome {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q63259}. Note=Detected on neuronal secretory vesicles, but not on synaptic vesicles. Colocalizes with insulin-containing secretory granules (PubMed:25561468). Primarily detected on secretory vesicle membranes. Transiently found at the cell membrane, when secretory vesicles fuse with the cell membrane to release their cargo. Is then endocytosed and recycled to secretory vesicles via the Golgi apparatus membranes. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q63259, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25561468}.;
