Expressed in placenta. Expressed in parietal and spiral artery-associated trophoblast giant cells, most abundantly during the phase of trophoblast invasion. From E14.5 onwards, expressed at lower levels in labyrinth trophoblast cells. Expressed in trophoblast stem cells. Expressed in heart, liver and testis.
