Tissue SpecificityIn epidermis, primarily detected in cells of the basal or immediately suprabasal layers (at protein level) (PubMed:16891417). In hair follicles, mainly expressed in the outer root sheath (at protein level) (PubMed:8034748). Expressed in epidermis, testis and foreskin, and to a lower extent in thymus, spleen, mammary glands, placenta, brain and heart (PubMed:9687312). Expressed in the ovary, notably in oocytes (PubMed:30010909). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16891417, ECO:0000269|PubMed:30010909, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8034748, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9687312}.
