Strongly expressed in eye and gastrointestinal tract (GIT), moderately in the brain and oviduct and weakly in the epididymis. In the eye, expressed in the epithelium of the iris and ciliary body and in photoreceptor cells of the retina. In the brain, expressed in leptomeninges, choroid plexus and spinal cord (sensory and motor neurons of the dorsal and ventral horns). In the stomach, expressed in the mucous-secreting goblet cells and the columnar epithelium. Expressed in platelets.
