Expressed in tissues and cells in which the myoglobin gene is transcriptionally active including cardiac and skeletal myocytes, brain and kidney. In the adult brain, expressed in the piriform cortex and the indusium griseum. In the hippocampus, expression is localized to the dentate gyrus and CA3 area. In the cerebellum, expression is confined to the Purkinje cell layer.
