OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the serine protease inhibitor family which are also known as serpins. The encoded protein belongs to a subfamily of intracellular serpins. This protein inhibits the activity of the effector molecule granzyme B. Overexpression of this protein may prevent cytotoxic T-lymphocytes from eliminating certain tumor cells. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads SERPINB9 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SERPINB9 could matter depends on whether native SERPINB9 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
SERPINB9 is annotated as predominantly intracellular. Intracellular proteins are common autoantibody markers, becoming visible to the immune system after cell injury or altered processing, but are usually markers of disease rather than direct drivers.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label SERPINB9 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
