Subcellular location [CC]Nucleus, nuclear pore complex {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12802065}. Nucleus membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O08587};
Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O08587};
Nucleoplasmic side {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O08587}. Note=Localizes to the nucleoplasmic fibrils of the nuclear pore complex (By similarity). Dissociates from the NPC structure early during prophase of mitosis (PubMed:12802065). Associates with the newly formed nuclear membrane during telophase (PubMed:12802065). In the testis, the localization changes during germ cell differentiation from the nuclear surface in spermatocytes to the whole nucleus (interior) in spermatids and back to the nuclear surface in spermatozoa (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O08587, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12802065}.
