Target (abbrv.) a1-Antitrypsin
Target (full name) Alpha-1-antitrypsin
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL000249 (3580-25_8)
Entrez Gene Symbol SERPINA1
UniProt ID P01009
UniProt Comment
  • Inhibitor of serine proteases. Its primary target is elastase, but it also has a moderate affinity for plasmin and thrombin. Irreversibly inhibits trypsin, chymotrypsin and plasminogen activator. The aberrant form inhibits insulin-induced NO synthesis in platelets, decreases coagulation time and has proteolytic activity against insulin and plasmin.

All locus annotations are based on the sentinel SNP (rs4905179) and 8 proxy variant(s) that is/are in linkage disequilibrium r2 ≥ 0.8. Linkage disequilibrium is based on data from the 1000 Genomes Project, phase 3 version 5, European population and was retrieved using SNiPA's Block Annotation feature.
