Expressed in the hippocampus and hypothalamus. Expressed in the pontine nuclei and reticulotegmental nucleus. Expressed in Purkinje cell and nuclear layers of the cerebelum. Expressed in the choroid plexus. Expressed in hippocampal granule neurons of the dente gyrus. Expressed in the developing brain embryo. Expressed in the mesencephalon in the tectum at 12.5 dpc and in the inferior colliculus at 16.5 dpc until birth. Expressed in the telencephalon in the ventricular zone, cortical plate, ganglionic eminence and hippocampus from 14.5 to 18.5 dpc. Expressed in the rhombencephalon in the pontine nuclei and in the external granule layer of the cerebellum at 16.5 and 18.5 dpc. Is not up-regulated in the hippocampus by acute social defeat stress or glucocorticoids stimulation. Belongs to the FAM107 family.
