Tissue_specificity:Ubiquitous; expressed most prominently in placental membranes and prostate, kidney, small intestine, and ovary tissues. Also expressed in heart, brain, skeletal muscle, lung, liver and pancreas. Low levels in peripheral blood leukocytes and in tissues of the immune system. Expressed mainly in epithelial cells. Also found in Schwann cells of peripheral neurons. Reduced expression in adenocarcinomas compared to normal tissues. In colon, prostate and placental membranes, the cells that border the lumen show the highest expression.

Induction:By homocysteine, 2-mercaptoethanol, tunicamycin in endothelial cells. Induced approximately 20-fold during in vitro differentiation of the colon carcinoma cell lines HT-29-D4 and Caco-2. Induced by oxidative stress in colon cancers. Decreased expression in colon adenomas and adenocarcinomas. Induced by nickel compounds in all tested cell lines. The primary signal for its induction is an elevation of free intracellular calcium ion caused by nickel ion exposure. Okadaic acid, a serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitor, induced its expression more rapidly and more efficiently than nickel

Q92597 has 3 isomers: Q92597-1: 42835 Da (predicted); Q92597-2: 35521 Da (predicted); Q92597-3: 33650 Da (predicted).
Under stress conditions, phosphorylated in the C-terminal on many serine and threonine residues. Phosphorylated in vitro by PKA. Phosphorylation enhanced by increased intracellular cAMP levels. Homocysteine induces dephosphorylation. Phosphorylation by SGK1 is cell cycle dependent
