Subcellular location [CC]Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16574901}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18178554, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19909337, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22055188}. Cytoplasm, P-body {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22055188, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26134560}. Rough endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5D1E7};
Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5D1E7};
Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5D1E7}. Cytoplasmic granule {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5D1E7}. Note=Predominantly localized in the cytoplasm. Colocalizes with GW182 on many granule-like structures, probably corresponding to cytoplasmic GW bodies (GWBs), also called processing bodies (P bodies). Colocalizes with calnexin on the surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) membrane and with translationally active polysomes (By similarity). Colocalizes with ZC3H12D in cytoplasmic mRNA processing P-body, also known as GW bodies (GWBs) (PubMed:22055188, PubMed:26134560). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22055188, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26134560}.
