Subcellular location [CC]Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10764593, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9325046}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10764593, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9325046}. Note=Present in the cytoplasm and excluded from the nucleus during G0/G1 phase, then relocates to the nucleus by the time cells are in S phase (PubMed:9325046). Phosphorylated form localizes in the cytoplasm during the G0/G1 transition, whereas dephosphorylation leads to relocalization into the nucleus at the G1/S-boundary (PubMed:10764593). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10764593, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9325046}.
