Tissue SpecificityOvary, testis and epididymis. Also detected in the prostate and the mammary gland. Expressed in many tumor cell lines derived from acute lymphocytic leukemia, prostate, endometrial adenocarcinoma, melanoma, bladder carcinoma, colon carcinoma, erythroleukemia and breast carcinoma. Not expressed in placenta. In testis, mainly expressed in germ cells, but also detected in somatic cells such as Sertoli cells, Leydig cells and peritubular cells (PubMed:28171660). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12490318, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28171660}.
