High impact information on Calm5

By Southern blot and computational genome sequence analysis, a highly related gene, Scarf2, was found 15 kb downstream of Scarf on mouse chromosome 13 [1].
To examine Scarf2 expression during embryogenesis, we performed in situ hybridization, and detected expression in the hair follicle, skin and nasal epithelium [2].

Anatomical context of Calm5

Interestingly, Scarf and Scarf2 were also detected in the tongue and oral epithelia, rib bone undergoing ossification and in the medullar region of thymus [2].
