Tissue SpecificityIsoform 2 is strongly detected in adult heart, fetal skeletal muscles and fetal heart. Isoform 1 is weakly detected in fetal heart and also in fetal skeletal muscle. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are detected in adult bladder (at protein level). The mRNA is predominantly expressed in heart and muscle with some expression in brain which may be due to tissue-specific isoforms. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11353857, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11737198}.

Subcellular location [CC]Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell junction, adherens junction. Note=There are at least two distinct SYNM subpopulations, one in which SYMN interacts with DES within the Z-lines, and another in which it interacts with both DTNA and DES at the costamere.
