Expressed in brain and cerebellum (PubMed:16876275). Expressed in placenta and hair follicles, with highest expression levels detected in the outer root sheath and no expression detected in bulb (PubMed:11316781, PubMed:10537154). Also expressed in body fluids such as plasma and amniotic fluid (PubMed:10537154). Expressed in embryonic fibroblasts and at low levels in keratinocytes (PubMed:11316781). Isoform 1: Expressed in brain and Neuro-2a cells (PubMed:16876275). Isoform 2: Expressed in brain (PubMed:16876275).
