| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the neocortex, thalamus, hippocampus, cerebellum, medulla oblongata, gray and white matter. Expressed in neurons, oligodendrocytes, basket, Purkinje and pyramidal cells. Expressed in spermatocytes and Leydig cells of the testis. Expressed in luteal theca cells lining corpus luteum cysts and in hilus cells of the ovary. Expressed in primary and neoplastic mast cells (MC) (at protein level). Highly expressed in brain. Also expressed in testis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11587527, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14738999, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19718454, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19756694, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19832840}. |

| Subcellular location [CC] | Nucleus. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Membrane {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment {ECO:0000250}. Golgi apparatus, cis-Golgi network {ECO:0000250}. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network. Cytoplasmic granule. Cell projection, axon. Cell projection, dendrite. Perikaryon. Note=Colocalizes with KDEL receptors in ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC). Translocates from the ERGIC structure to the cytoplasm in an antizyme-dependent manner. Localizes with vesicle-associated membrane protein VAMP8 in the vicinity of the plasma membrane within serotonin-containing secretory granules (By similarity). Detected as vesicle-like pattern in neurite outgrowths. Localizes to the vesicular compartments of the secretory pathway, predominantly in the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Localizes with vesicle-associated membrane protein VAMP8 in the vicinity of the plasma membrane within serotonin-containing secretory granules. {ECO:0000250}. |
