Tissue SpecificityHighly expressed in metastatic melanoma cells whereas it is undetectable in primary melanoma cells, healthy skin tissues and peripheral blood lymphocytes. Expressed in CD34(+) hematopoietic progenitor cells and during monocyte and granulocyte differentiation. Overexpressed in acute myeloid leukemia, in particular in those displaying granulocytic differentiation (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19893578, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25961573}.
