| Function |
Plays a role in regulating placenta growth. May act via its PH domain that competes with other PH domain-containing proteins, thereby preventing their binding to membrane lipids (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in placenta and adult prostate gland. In placenta, it is present in all cells of the villous cytotrophoblast. The protein is absent in cells from hydatidiform moles. Hydatidiform mole is a gestation characterized by abnormal development of both fetus and trophoblast. The majority of hydatidiform moles are associated with an excess of paternal to maternal genomes and are likely to result from the abnormal expression of imprinted genes (at protein level). Expressed at low levels in adult liver and lung, and fetal liver. Expressed in adult brain and neuroblastoma, medullablastoma and glioblastoma cell lines. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10594239, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10749982, ECO:0000269|PubMed:13129680, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15457853, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9328465}.
