Tissue SpecificityPresent in intestine (at protein level). Expressed in colon, prostate, kidney, pancreas, ovary, testis, intestine, lung and pancreas. Expressed at lower level in brain, spleen and heart. In hair, it is prominently expressed in hair follicles, including the stem cell-rich bulge region. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12063250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12213196, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12719377, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17095700}.
