UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Tissue specificity. Widely expressed. Also found in tumors originating from parathyroid gland, colon, stomach, bladder, uterus and prostate.
Miscellaneous. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.
