Broadly expressed, with high levels in muscle, brain, heart, pancreas and testis. In the central nervous system, highest levels are detected in the cerebellum and pituitary gland. Over-expressed in brains from patients with bipolar disease or schizophrenia. Isoform 5 is predominantly expressed in the brain.
