Subcellular location [CC]Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28536242}. Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q14BI7}. Note=Component of the nuage, also named P granule, a germ-cell-specific organelle required to repress transposon activity during meiosis. Specifically localizes to piP-bodies, a subset of the nuage which contains secondary piRNAs. PIWIL2 is required for its localization to piP-bodies. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q14BI7}.
