Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000255}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10605012}. Note=Has low cell surface expression and high cytoplasmic expression in T cells. The bias towards cytoplasmic expression may be due to ligand-independent receptor internalization and recycling. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10605012, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15356148}.
