Background
This gene encodes a member of the Kunitz-type serine proteinase inhibitor family. The protein can inhibit a variety of serine proteases including factor VIIa/tissue factor, factor Xa, plasmin, trypsin, chymotryspin and plasma kallikrein. This gene has been identified as a tumor suppressor gene in several types of cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012],domain:This inhibitor contains three inhibitory domains.,function:May play a role in the regulation of plasmin-mediated matrix remodeling. Inhibits trypsin, plasmin, factor VIIa/tissue factor and weakly factor Xa. Has no effect on thrombin.,similarity:Contains 2 BPTI/Kunitz inhibitor domains.,similarity:Contains 3 BPTI/Kunitz inhibitor domains.,tissue specificity:Umbilical vein endothelial cells, liver, placenta, heart, pancreas, and maternal serum at advanced pregnancy.,
