Tissue Distribution Comments
Using in situ hybridisation, embryonic chick α4 subunit was found in the following tissues: spinal cord, dorsal root ganglia, sympathetic ganglia, male genital ridge [2].

General Comments
The α4 subunit is likely to be a pseudogene in man. Full length information for the rat α4 subunit is only available as a predicted sequence.
