Tissue SpecificityExpressed in immune system and fetal brain, but not in other tissues tested or in multiple hematopoietic cell lines. Predominantly expressed in skin keratinocytes but not in fibroblasts, endothelial cells or melanocytes. Increased in lesional psoriasis skin. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11466363}.

Subcellular location [CC]Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:32272059}. Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:32272059}. Note=The secretion is dependent on protein unfolding and facilitated by the cargo receptor TMED10;
it results in protein translocation from the cytoplasm into the ERGIC (endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment) followed by vesicle entry and secretion. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:32272059}.
