SERPINF1 serpin family F member 1

Gene ID: 5176, updated on 23-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: OI6; OI12; PEDF; EPC-1; PIG35

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the serpin family that does not display the serine protease inhibitory activity shown by many of the other serpin proteins. The encoded protein is secreted and strongly inhibits angiogenesis. In addition, this protein is a neurotrophic factor involved in neuronal differentiation in retinoblastoma cells. Mutations in this gene were found in individuals with osteogenesis imperfecta, type VI. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]
