Subcellular location [CC]Lateral cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16188940}. Cell junction, tight junction {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16188940}. Membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26642364};
Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Cell membrane, sarcolemma {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26642364}. Membrane, caveola {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9ES83}. Note=Colocalizes with VAMP3 at the cell-cell contact in cardiac and skeletal muscle (By similarity). Its movement from the cytoplasm to membrane is an early event occurring concurrently with cell-cell contact. Colocalizes in epithelial cells with OCLN and TJP1 in an apical-lateral position within the z axis. Detected at cell-cell contact but never observed at the free surface of epithelial cells. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9ES83}.
