| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the retina (at protein level) (PubMed:29416295). Widely expressed with highest expression in brain, heart, pancreas and skeletal muscle (PubMed:11115853). Expressed at similar levels in control fetal and adult brain (PubMed:11115853). Expressed in migrating neurons, including Cajar-Retzius cells and adult cortical neurons, as well as hippocampal pyramidal cells and cerebellar Purkinje cells (PubMed:11115853). No expression observed in the glia limitans, the subpial astrocytes (which contribute to basement membrane formation) or other glial cells (PubMed:11115853). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11115853, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29416295}. |
