Specifically expressed in brain. Not expressed in heart, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, pancreas, spleen, thymus, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine, colon and leukocyte. In brain, it is expressed in cerebellum, frontal lobe, temporal lobe, putamen and spinal cord, weakly expressed in cerebral cortex. Not expressed in medulla and occipital pole.
