Serpinb6a - serine (or cysteine) peptidase inhibitor, clade B, member 6a

Predicted to enable protease binding activity and serine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to osmotic stress; negative regulation of endopeptidase activity; and sensory perception of sound. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of peptidase activity. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; inner ear; and respiratory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 91. Orthologous to human SERPINB6 (serpin family B member 6).
