Subcellular location [CC]Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D3Z5L6};
Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255}. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D4A9K4};
Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D4A9K4}. Note=Colocalizes with VAMP3 and VAMP8 in mast cell secretory granules, which are distinct from histamine- and serotonin-containing granules (By similarity). Partly colocalizes with SYP in synaptic vesicles in hippocampal neurons. Colocalizes with SYP and VAMP2 in secretory vesicles of astrocytes (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D3Z5L6, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D4A9K4}.
