Tissue SpecificityExpressed in primary fetal mononuclear myoblast (PubMed:17150207). Expressed strongly in naive T lymphocytes (PubMed:27556504). Expressed weakly in activated T lymphocytes (at protein level) (PubMed:27556504). Expressed in blood cells and adult tissues of hematopoietic origin, such as the secondary lymphoid organs (PubMed:23241886). Expressed in cytotrophoblast (PubMed:9055809). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17150207, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23241886, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27556504, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9055809}.
