Subcellular Location |
Apical cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19486448}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19486448}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19486448}. Note=Predominantly localized in the apical membrane of cells in the S1 segment. In the proximal straight tubules (S2 and S3 segments) is expressed diffusely throughout the cytoplasm.
