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 8.0.0) Predicted to enable protease binding activity and serine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to osmotic stress; negative regulation of endopeptidase activity; 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.
