Tissue SpecificityExpressed in lung epithelial cells (at protein level) (PubMed:10837369). Expressed in foreskin, lung and trachea (PubMed:9202117). Lower expression in kidney, uterus and salivary gland tissue (PubMed:9202117). Expressed in epithelial cells of the respiratory tract, with higher expression in distal parenchyma of the lung, trachea, and tonsils, and lower expression in pharynx and adenoid, and low expression in tongue and larynx (PubMed:9831658, PubMed:10837369). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10837369, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9202117, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9831658}.
