Summary | The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the large serpin family of proteins, and is also known as serpin PZ-dependent protease inhibitor (ZPI or PZI). This protein is thought to play an important role in the regulation of coagulation. It directly inhibits factor XIa, and also inhibits factor Xa in the presence of calcium, phospholipids, and protein Z (PZ). Deficiencies in this gene lead to an increase in thrombosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode multiple protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2014]. |
