Tissue SpecificityExpressed in KYSE-150 esophageal carcinoma, HeLa cervical carcinoma and U2OS osteosarcoma cells. Expression is regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner and peaks during G2/M phase (at protein level). Expressed in fetal heart, skeletal muscle, liver, lung and cochlea, and in adult brain, testis, kidney and retina. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17403670, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18826961}.

Subcellular location [CC]Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16254247}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16254247}. Note=In interphase cells, NINL is transported to the centrosomes by the dynein-dynactin motor complex (PubMed:16254247). During centrosome maturation, PLK1 directly phosphorylates NINL resulting in its release into the cytoplasm (PubMed:16254247).
