" /> Serpin B5 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Serpin B5;

NCIt synonyms : SERPINB5; Protease Inhibitor 5; PI5; Maspin; PI-5;

NCIt definition : Serpin B5 (375 aa, 42 kDa) is encoded by the human SERPINB5 gene. This protein plays a role in the regulation of cell movement and in tumor suppression.;

NCIt note : Maspin is a member of the Serpin protein family. Unlike other members of the family, Maspin exhibits no protease inhibitory activity (see J Biol Chem. 2002 Dec 6;277(49):46845-8. Epub 2002 Oct 15), but it plays a role in cell-matrix adhesion, tumor invasion, and metastasis. High maspin expression appears to oppose lymph node metastasis. Higher expression is associated with better survival rates and may be a favorable prognostic marker. (from SWISS-PROT, OMIM);
