Tissue SpecificityDetected in taste bud cells in fungiform papillae (at protein level) (PubMed:19812697). Ubiquitous (PubMed:9748274). Expressed in adult heart, skeletal muscle, brain, spleen, testis, retina and liver (PubMed:9748274, PubMed:9878261). Isoform 4 appears to be expressed only in transformed lymphoblasts. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19812697, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9748274, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9878261}.
