Tissue specificity:Expressed mainly in oocytes; weak expression in granulosa cells of the developing follicles. In adult human ovaries, expressed in granulosa cells at all follicular stages, but expression in primordial/primary follicles granulosa cell is stronger than in secondary and antral follicles. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20673843}.

Induction:Up-regulated by DNA damage. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15102863}.

Developmental stage:Isoform 1: at 5-7 weeks of gestation, detected primarily in the cytotrophoblast layer. By 10-13 weeks, expression becomes restricted primarily to the apical border of the syncytiotrophoblast (PubMed:19942931). Isoform 2: expression significantly increased around 6-8 weeks (PubMed:15775999). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15775999, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19942931}.

Protein families:Bcl-2 family
