TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityStrong expression is found in the heart, liver placenta, muscle, nasal mucosa, salivary gland and uvula and moderate expression in kidney and lung. Higher levels detected in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and chromophobe RCC than in normal kidney tissue. Expressed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PubMed:32181500). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17028174, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18403135, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27353360, ECO:0000269|PubMed:32181500}.
