MEST Products

Description

MEST encodes a member of the [alpha]/[beta] hydrolase fold family and has isoform specific imprinting. The loss of imprinting of this gene has been linked to certain types of cancer and may be due to promotor switching. The encoded protein may play a role in development. Three transcript variants encoding two distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. A pseudogene for this locus is located on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq]
