Note=Detected in a nuclear, speckled-like pattern (PubMed:16510120). Localized with condensed chromatin at prophase;
Detected in nuclear spindle poles at metaphase and in the contractile ring during telophase and cytokinesis (PubMed:16510120). Present in cytoplasm, nuclear matrix and at the cell surface in macrophages;
