TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityWidely expressed. Strong expression in brain and testis. In CNS, it is expressed in the perikaryon and proximal portion of the neuronal processes. Strong expression in the hippocampus, neuron-rich dendate granule cells, and pyramidal cell layers. Highly expressed in neurons of the cerebral cortex. Also expressed in the cerebellar cortex, deep cerebellar nuclei, thalamus, and basal ganglia. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10747910}.
