| Tissue Specificity | Expressed at high levels in thymus and testis, at low levels in small intestine, the mucosal lining of colon, and placenta, and at very low levels in spleen and ovary; expression is not detected in prostate, peripheral blood Leukocytes, heart, brain, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney or pancreas. Isoform 2 is testis-specific. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12383881, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9434124}. |

| Subcellular location [CC] | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19632184, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21820309, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23891108}. Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P70096}. Chromosome, centromere {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14960279, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17485487}. Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14960279, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17485487, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23891108}. Note=Associates with the microtubule network at the growing distal tip (the plus-end) of microtubules, probably through interaction with MTUS2/TIP150 and MAPRE1 (By similarity). Association with microtubule plus ends is also mediated by interaction with KIF18B. Centromeric localization requires the presence of BUB1 and SGO2. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P70096, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17485487, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21820309}. |
