Cellular localization
Apical cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Lysosome membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Located to the plasma membrane by SLC3A2/4F2hc (PubMed:9751058). Localized to the apical membrane of placental syncytiotrophoblastic cells (PubMed:11742812). Recruited to lysosomes by LAPTM4B (PubMed:25998567). Expressed in both luminal and abluminal membranes of brain capillary endothelial cells (By similarity). .
Tissue expression
Detected in placenta, in the syncytiotrophoblast layer (at protein level) (PubMed:11389679). Expressed abundantly in adult lung, liver, brain, skeletal muscle, placenta, bone marrow, testis, resting lymphocytes and monocytes, and in fetal liver. Weaker expression in thymus, cornea, retina, peripheral leukocytes, spleen, kidney, colon and lymph node. During gestation, expression in the placenta was significantly stronger at full-term than at the mid-trimester stage. Also expressed in all human tumor cell lines tested and in the astrocytic process of primary astrocytic gliomas. Expressed in retinal endothelial cells and in the intestinal epithelial cell line Caco-2.
