Description
GCET1 (germinal center B-cell expressed transcript 1) belongs to the SERPIN family of proteins and is located within a cluster of SERPIN genes on chromosome 14q32). This protein may play an important role in GC-B cell physiology. Its expression in lymphomas could be important in differential diagnosis and research.
