Subcellular location [CC]Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17267406}. Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17267406}. Note=Predominantly expressed in the cytoplasm and shuttles between the cytoplasm and the nucleus through the CRM1 export pathway. May act as suppressor of replication stress and chromosome missegregation.
