Facts about Serine protease HTRA3.
May act as a tumor suppressor. Negatively regulates, in vitro, trophoblast invasion during placental development and may be involved in the development of the placenta in vivo.

Highest level of isoform 1 in maternal part of the placenta, moderate level in heart, testis and ovary, low level in muscle and lung. High expression found in granulosa cells of the ovary. Expressed in bone matrix, particularly in articular chondrocytes. Very low level of isoform 2 expressed in placenta. Expressed in the bone matrix, particularly in articular chondrocytes.
