Isoform 1 is highly expressed in skeletal muscle and to a lesser extent in heart, placenta, ovary, prostate, testis, small intestine, colon and spleen. Expression is barely detectable in brain, lung, liver, kidney, pancreas, thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes. Isoform 2 is expressed in brain, skeletal muscle and to a lesser extent in heart, colon, prostate and small intestine. Isoform 3 is expressed in testis, heart and skeletal muscle.
[Isoform 1]: Cytoplasm.; [Isoform 3]: Cytoplasm. Nucleus.; [Isoform 2]: Nucleus. Cytoplasm, cytosol. Predominantly nuclear in myoblasts but is cytosolic in differentiated myotubes.
