Subcellular location [CC]Nucleus inner membrane {ECO:0000305|PubMed:27640305};
Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9DA32}. Golgi apparatus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9DA32}. Note=During spermiogenesis, traffics through the Golgi apparatus before reaching the round spermatid inner membrane of the nuclear envelope and later migrates to the coupling apparatus of the sperm during sperm head elongation and differentiation. In mature spermatozoa, is localized to the coupling apparatus of the sperm head and tail in the implementation fossa. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:27640305}.
