Serpin A9 also known as centerin or GCET1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SERPINA9gene located on chromosome 14q32.1.[5] Serpin A9 is a member of the serpin family of serine protease inhibitors.
Function
The expression of SERPINA9 is restricted to germinal centerB cells and lymphoid malignancies. SERPINA9 is likely to function in vivo in the germinal center as an efficient inhibitor of trypsin-like proteases.[6][7][8]
