Subcellular location [CC]Synapse {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O88935}. Golgi apparatus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O88935}. Presynapse {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21441247}. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P09951}. Note=Dissociates from synaptic vesicles and redistributes into the axon during action potential firing, in a step that precedes fusion of vesicles with the plasma membrane. Reclusters to presynapses after the cessation of synaptic activity. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P09951}.
