Expressed in heart, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, pancreas and very weakly in brain and kidney.
[Isoform 1]: Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass membrane protein. Secreted. A small proportion is secreted, probably via a proteolytic cleavage that removes the membrane anchor.; [Isoform 2]: Secreted. Found in the extracellular medium of quiescent cells but is not found in proliferating cells.
