DBSNP rs17852369  rs16907980  rs7948666 
Subcellular location [CC]Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10037799, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26823460};
Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10037799}. Note=Localized to the plasma membrane and in vesicles near extranuclear membranes which may represent trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes/prelysosomeal compartments. Undergoes ligand-dependent internalization and recycling at the cell surface. Localizes at cell-cell junctions.
