Serpini1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of neuron projection development. Located in neuronal cell body and secretory granule lumen. Is expressed in several structures, including enteric nervous system; genitourinary system; intestine; retina; and telencephalon. Used to study familial encephalopathy with neuroserpin inclusion bodies. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial encephalopathy with neuroserpin inclusion bodies. Orthologous to human SERPINI1 (serpin family I member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Serpini1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
