Subcellular location [CC]Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12671034, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15205117};
Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12671034, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15205117}. Note=The catalytic domain is released into the extracellular medium when cells are treated with trypsin (PubMed:15205117). Localized at the surface of the microvillar membrane in small intestine enterocytes, and in endosome-like structures situated beneath the microvillar membrane, and in Golgi complex (PubMed:12671034, PubMed:12885774). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12671034, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12885774, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15205117}.
