Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. Involved in activation of immune response; cytolysis; and positive regulation of type II interferon production. Predicted to be located in extracellular space.
RGD Description
This gene encodes a serpin-domain containing protein that may function as a serine protease inhibitor. This gene is primarily expressed in cells of myeloid lineage. A polymorphism in this gene may result in the expression a splice variant that encodes a minor histocompatibility antigen. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
