Tissue specificity:Detected in embryonic neurons in dorsal root ganglia and brain cortex (at protein level). Highly expressed in testis, in about one third of the seminiferous tubules. Expression is restricted to specific spermatocytes nearing completion of prophase, with levels falling off on transition to elongated spermatids. Highly expressed in the ovary, expression in the oocyte starts around the transition to large growing follicle. Abundant expression is seen in the proliferating granulosa and thecal cells of the growing follicle, and in the young corpus luteum. Very weakly expressed in spleen and intestine. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19668197, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9245792}.
Induction:expression is cell cycle regulated and peaks at phase G2/M. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9245792}.
Developmental stage:At 7.5-9.5 dpc expressed evenly all over the embryo. At later stages, expression is mainly restricted to proliferating zones. The highest levels of expression at mid-embryonic development (13.5 dpc) were observed in the liver, lung, kidney and back (trapezius) muscle and all regions in active proliferation.
Protein families:Protein kinase superfamily, Ser/Thr protein kinase family, Aurora subfamily
