Primary Identifier | MGI:103123 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 20719 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable protease binding activity and serine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to osmotic stress and sensory perception of sound. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; gut; inner ear; and respiratory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 91. Orthologous to human SERPINB6 (serpin family B member 6). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a reporter allele are viable, fertile and developmentally normal, with no apparent alterations in growth, leukocyte function, or sensitivity to cerebral ischemia.
