CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: [Isoform A1]: Highly expressed in kidney medulla
CC (at protein level) (PubMed:12217874). Also detected in testes, heart,
CC brain and liver (at protein level) (PubMed:12217874). In the kidney,
CC present in thin descending limbs of the loop of Henle and in the middle
CC and terminal inner medullary collecting ducts.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12217874}.
