Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 70993 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in proteolysis. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Orthologous to human PRSS54 (serine protease 54). PHENOTYPE: Male mice homozygous for one null allele exhibit normal fertility.
