Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:32415200}. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24782309, ECO:0000305|PubMed:24790029};
Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:32415200}. Note=In the absence of LRRC8A, resides primarily in a cytoplasmic compartment, probably the endoplasmic reticulum (PubMed:24782309, PubMed:24790029). Requires LRRC8A for expression at the cell membrane (PubMed:24790029). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24782309, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24790029}.
