PRSS1 serine protease 1

Gene ID: 5644, updated on 6-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: TRP1; TRY1; TRY4; TRYP1

Summary

This gene encodes a trypsinogen, which is a member of the trypsin family of serine proteases. This enzyme is secreted by the pancreas and cleaved to its active form in the small intestine. It is active on peptide linkages involving the carboxyl group of lysine or arginine. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary pancreatitis. This gene and several other trypsinogen genes are localized to the T cell receptor beta locus on chromosome 7. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
