PI15 peptidase inhibitor 15

Gene ID: 51050, updated on 18-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: P24TI; P25TI; CRISP8

Summary

This gene encodes a trypsin inhibitor. The protein shares similarity to insect venom allergens, mammalian testis-specific proteins and plant pathogenesis-related proteins. It is frequently expressed in human neuroblastoma and glioblastoma cell lines, and thus may play a role in the central nervous system. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
