Cytoplasm, perinuclear region {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26416734, ECO:0000305|PubMed:26416733}. Note=(Microbial infection) Upon HIV-1 infection, it is redirected to perinuclear region following interaction with HIV-1 Nef, excluding it from virions particles, thereby preventing subsequent antiviral defense activity (PubMed:26416733, PubMed:26416734). Localizes to the cell membrane, where it is efficiently incorporated into budding virions and impairs subsequent virion entry into target cells (PubMed:26416733, PubMed:26416734). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26416734, ECO:0000305|PubMed:26416733}.
