Highest levels are found in fetal and adult brain, prostate, testis and spinal cord. Undetectable expression in adrenal gland, skeletal muscle, bone marrow, fetal, and adult liver, heart, salivary gland, and trachea. Detected in the HEK293, HEK293T, LNCaP, MCF-7, T-47D and EVSA-T cell lines (at protein level).
