Tissue SpecificityHeart, skeletal muscle, liver and kidney. Expressed at lower levels in brain and pancreas and at very low levels in the intestine and white adipose tissue. In skeletal muscle, levels were lower in obese than in lean subjects and fasting induced a 2-fold increase in levels in the skeletal muscle in obese subjects. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10585775, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10643692, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10713165}.
