Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255}. Late endosome {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11231950, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15681833}. Note=Predominantly found in the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Localized in the trans-Golgi network under low copper conditions, redistributes to cytoplasmic vesicles when cells are exposed to elevated copper levels, and then recycles back to the trans-Golgi network when copper is removed (PubMed:10942420). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10942420, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22240481, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24706876, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9307043}.;
