Tissue specificity:Neurons of the superior cervical and dorsal root ganglia, and adult brain and testis. Low level in the substantia nigra, spleen and adrenal gland (PubMed:9182803). Isoform 1, isoform 2 and isoform 3 are all expressed in brain, liver, ileum, spleen, heart and kidney (PubMed:9875703). In brain, isoform 1 is most abundant, isoform 2 slightly less and isoform 3 is lowest. No significant levels of isoform 1, isoform 2 or isoform 3 expression in testis (PubMed:12829325). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12829325, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9182803, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9875703}.
Induction:
Developmental stage:Expressed at low level in the ventral mesencephalon at 14 dpc. Highly expressed in the developing dorsal root ganglia (PubMed:9182803). Isoform 1, isoform 2 and isoform 3 are all highly expressed in the late embryonic development (15 dpc and 17 dpc) (PubMed:12829325). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12829325, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9182803}.
