Tissue SpecificityIsoform 1 is expressed almost exclusively in the brain. Isoform 2 is detected in brain, spleen, lung, liver, heart, skeletal muscle and kidney. Isoform 5 is primarily expressed in brain, spleen, lung and kidney (at protein level) (PubMed:21712076). Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are detected in brain (PubMed:10482960). Isoform 2 is ubiquitous in adult and fetal tissues with high expression in skeletal muscle, heart, spleen, ovary, testis and all fetal tissues tested and low expression in thymus, blood, lung, liver and pancreas. Isoform 1 is expressed almost exclusively in the brain, in all brain regions. Not expressed in the spinal cord (PubMed:9799604, PubMed:21712076, PubMed:11690630). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10482960, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11690630, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21712076, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9799604}.
