ID:SPB3_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Serpin B3; AltName: Full=Protein T4-A; AltName: Full=Squamous cell carcinoma antigen 1; Short=SCCA-1; FUNCTION: May act as a protease inhibitor to modulate the host immune response against tumor cells. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Note=Seems to also be secreted in plasma by cancerous cells but at a low level. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Squamous cells. Expressed in some hepatocellular carcinoma (at protein level). DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Its expression is closely related to cellular differentiation in both normal and malignant squamous cells. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the serpin family. Ov-serpin subfamily. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAO11731.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
