Tissue SpecificityWidely expressed. Expressed in all adult and fetal tissues examined, with the strongest expression in kidney and pancreas. In brain, it is expressed at high levels in cerebellum, to a lesser degree in cerebral cortex, occipital pole, and frontal and temporal lobes. Only weakly expressed in medulla, spinal cord and putamen. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12659812}.

Subcellular location [CC]Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane {ECO:0000305};
Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000305};
Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000305}. Synapse. Note=Membrane-associated to vesicles. Strongly enriched in synaptic fractions. Probably localizes to different vesicles compared to CADPS. Enriched on vesicular structures in the parallel fiber terminal of granule cells that are distinct from synaptic vesicles.
