This gene encodes a member of the HtrA family of
proteases. The encoded protein contains a putative signal peptide,
an insulin growth factor binding domain, a Kazal protease inhibitor
domain, a conserved trypsin domain and a PDZ domain. Based on
studies on other related family members, this enzyme may function
as a secreted oligomeric chaperone protease to degrade misfolded
secretory proteins. Other human HtrA proteins have been implicated
in arthritis, tumor suppression, unfolded stress response,
apoptosis, and aging.1) Clausen, T., et al. Mol. Cell 10(3):443-455(2002)
