Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome, centriole {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10329013}. Note=Almost exclusively localized in the nucleus and appears in numerous small foci and a small number of larger foci whereas a centrosomal location has not been detected (PubMed:16924674). In response to DNA damage, localizes to sites of double-strand break (PubMed:21270334, PubMed:28447610). Also localizes to single-strand breaks (PubMed:27530147). Preferentially localized to the daughter centriole (PubMed:10329013). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10329013, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16924674, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21270334, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27530147, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28447610}.
