Gene: PRSS23

Alternate names for this Gene: SIG13|SPUVE|ZSIG13

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a conserved member of the trypsin family of serine proteases. Mouse studies found a decrease of mRNA levels of this gene after ovulation was induced. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 11

Location in Chromosome : 11q14.2

Description of this Gene: serine protease 23

Type of Gene: protein-coding
