Serpin peptidase inhibitor, clade A (alpha-1 antiproteinase, antitrypsin), member 5 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the serpin family of proteins, a group of proteins that inhibit serine proteases. This gene is one in a cluster of serpin genes located on the q arm of chromosome 14. This family member is a glycoprotein that can inhibit several serine proteases, including protein C and various plasminogen activators and kallikreins, and it thus plays diverse roles in hemostasis and thrombosis in multiple organs.
