Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Serine protease which hydrolyzes a range of proteins including type I collagen, fibronectin and fibrinogen. Can also activate urokinase-type plasminogen activator with low efficiency (By similarity). May play a specialized role in matrix remodeling processes in liver. Required to sense iron deficiency. Overexpression suppresses activation of the HAMP promoter. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269PubMed:18451267}.
Subcellular Localization Cell membrane {ECO:0000269PubMed:12744720}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:12744720}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Expressed at highest levels in adult mice liver, kidney and uterus. Also strongly expressed within the nasal cavity by olfactory epithelial cells. A weak, but detectable, signal in adult mice tissues analyzed including brain, lung, heart, kidney, spleen, muscle, intestine, thymus and pancreas. No signal in residual embryonic yolk sac, developing kidney tubules or in embryonic tissues analyzed including lung, heart, gastrointestinal tract and epithelium of the oral cavity. {ECO:0000269PubMed:12744720}.
