Summary: Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of endopeptidase activity; positive regulation of biosynthetic process; and positive regulation of glomerular mesangial cell proliferation. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of proteolysis. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in olfactory epithelium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in IgA glomerulonephritis; Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis; and familial encephalopathy with neuroserpin inclusion bodies. Orthologous to human SERPINB7 (serpin family B member 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
