Tissue specificity:Highly expressed in hair follicles from scalp. In hair, it is specifically present in the inner root sheath (IRS) of the hair follicle. Present in the IRS cuticle, but not in Henle or Huxley layers of the IRS. In the IRS cuticle, it is expressed between the lowermost bulb region of the cuticle and the region where Henle cells undergo abrupt terminal differentiation. Detected up to the uppermost cortex region where cuticle cells terminally differentiate (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12648212, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16874310}.
