Background Information

MEST(Mesoderm-specific transcript homolog protein) is also named as PEG1 and belongs to the AB hydrolase superfamily. The gene is a imprinting gene, which is associated with growth of mesodermal origin cells(PMID:20339302) and plays important roles in embryo development(PMID:21375506). It is also a novel regulator of Wnt/CTNNB signalling during adipogenic differentiation(PMID:21375506). It has 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing and the full length protein has a glycosylation site.
