Tissue SpecificityIsoform 1 is expressed highly in normal prostate and salivary gland, very weakly in colon, pancreas, and intestine, and not at all in other tissues. Isoform 1 is expressed highly in many cancer cell lines and in breast cancer, pancreatic cancer and colon cancer. Isoform 2 is expressed in cancer cell lines. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16585525, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19250639}.
