TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityExpressed ubiquitously, including in skin and hair follicle cells. Detected in both Henle's and Huxley's layers of the inner root sheath of the hair follicle and in suprabasal layers of the epidermis (at protein level). Expressed at low levels in peripheral blood leukocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11004484, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18297070, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18297072}.
