Tissue specificity:Highly expressed in hydatidiform moles, but barely expressed in dermoid cysts. Biallelic expression is detected in blood lymphocytes. Seems to imprinted in an isoform-specific manner rather than in a tissue-specific manner in lymphocytes. Isoform 1 is expressed only from the paternal allele. Isoform 2 is expressed from both the paternal allele and the maternal allele. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8884280, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9192843}.
Induction:
Developmental stage:Monoallelic expression of paternally derived allele was observed in all fetal tissues examined, including brain, skeletal muscle, kidney, adrenal, tongue, heart, skin and placenta. In 75-day fetus, expressed in the amnion, brain, heart, lung, stomach, gut, adrenal, kidney, muscle and liver. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8884280, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9158153, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9192843}.
Protein families:AB hydrolase superfamily
