Abstract excerpt
SERPINA1 is a well-studied serpin gene due to its dramatic impact on human health. Translation initiation at the main SERPINA1 start codon produces the only known alpha1-antitrypsin (AAT) isoform intended for secretion. AAT performs essential functions by inhibiting proteases and modulating immunity. However, SERPINA1 expression at the level of translation is not sufficiently studied. Here we hypothesize that the...
