Subcellular location [CC]Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11118054, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9108029}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11118054, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9108029}. Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1332947}. Note=Translocates from the cytoplasm into the nucleus after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate induction (PMA) (PubMed:9108029). Predominantly in the cytoplasm in non irradiated cells (PubMed:11118054). Radiation induces translocation of TRX from the cytoplasm to the nucleus (PubMed:11118054). Secreted by a leaderless secretory pathway (PubMed:1332947). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11118054, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1332947, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9108029}.
