Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 10279
Gene name Serine protease 16
Gene symbol PRSS16
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
TSSP
Chromosome 6
Chromosome location 6p22.1
Summary This gene encodes a serine protease expressed exclusively in the thymus. It is thought to play a role in the alternative antigen presenting pathway used by cortical thymic epithelial cells during the positive selection of T cells. The gene is found in the
miRNA miRNA information provided by mirtarbase database.
