Serpina6 - serine (or cysteine) peptidase inhibitor, clade A, member 6 Gene

Also Known as Cbg

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 12401

Summary

This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the Serpin (Serine Protease Inhibitor) family. The encoded protein is an alpha-globulin with corticosteroid-binding properties. This is the major transport protein for glucorticoids and progestins in the blood of most vertebrates. The gene localizes to a chromosomal region containing several closely related serine Protease Inhibitors. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
