Serpinb7 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of biosynthetic process and positive regulation of glomerular mesangial cell proliferation. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of proteolysis. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in olfactory epithelium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in IgA glomerulonephritis; Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis; and familial encephalopathy with neuroserpin inclusion bodies. Orthologous to human SERPINB7 (serpin family B member 7). [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 Serpinb7 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
