Widely expressed with high level in uterus, aorta, heart, lung, trachea, placenta and in fetal heart, kidney, liver, spleen and lung. Expressed by CD34(+) acute myeloid leukemia cell lines, T-cell lines, activated T-lymphoblasts, endothelial cells and activated platelets. Isoform 4 is expressed in placenta. Isoform 1 is expressed in keratinocytes and placenta.
Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor.
