gene: srp-6 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable peptidase activity and serine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. Predicted to be involved in proteolysis. Predicted to be located in extracellular space. Expressed in hermaphrodite gonad; intestine; pharyngeal-intestinal valve; socket cell; and vulva. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including IgA glomerulonephritis; autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 91; and familial encephalopathy with neuroserpin inclusion bodies. Is an ortholog of several human genes including SERPINB1 (serpin family B member 1); SERPINB8 (serpin family B member 8); and SERPINB9 (serpin family B member 9).
