Tissue SpecificityExpressed in resting B cells (at protein level). Expressed in secondary lymphoid organs rich in B and T cells such as the tonsils, spleen, and thymus (at protein level) (PubMed:10605026, PubMed:11169396). Expressed in the endothelial cells of the tonsils (PubMed:11169396). Expressed on activated lymphoid cells including B cells, NK cells, CD4+ T cells and memory T cells (at protein level) (PubMed:27455421, PubMed:20865824). Expressed in motor neurons of spinal cord (PubMed:26928464). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10605026, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11169396, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20865824, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26928464, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27455421}.
