TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityWidely expressed in various tissues including heart, lung, kidney, ovary, testis, prostate, placenta, skeletal Low levels in the liver, thymus and leukocytes. In the adult brain, broadly expressed in amygdala, caudate nucleus, corpus callosum, hippocampus, hypothalamus, substantia nigra, subthalamic nucleus, and thalamus. High levels in fetal tissues, especially brain. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7485154, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7842016, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8965642}.

Subcellular location [CC]Nucleus. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Cell junction {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P54258}. Note=Shuttles between nucleus and cytoplasm. Colocalizes with FAT1 in the perinuclear area, at cell-cell junctions and leading edges of cells (By similarity). Colocalizes with MTG8 in discrete nuclear dots. Proteolytic fragment F1 appears to remain in nucleus. Fragment F2 is exported into the cytoplasm. Fragment F2 from mutant sequences with longer poly-Gln (polyQ) tracts are additionally located to the cytoplasmic membrane and to certain organelles. {ECO:0000250}.
