Summary: This gene encodes a member of the peptidase S1 family of serine proteases. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate a mature protein product. This product, expressed by activated T cells, may induce apoptosis of target cells. This gene is present in a gene cluster with other members of the granzyme subfamily on chromosome 14.

What's a GeneRIF?

granzyme C is activated with persistent antigenic stimulation, providing nonredundant backup protection for the host when granzyme B fails.
Title: Differential expression of granzyme B and C in murine cytotoxic lymphocytes.
during late primary alloimmune responses, granzyme C can support CTL-mediated killing by the granule exocytosis pathway in the absence of functional granzymes A or B.
Title: Granzyme C supports efficient CTL-mediated killing late in primary alloimmune responses.
IL-2 increased the expression of perforin and granzyme A, B, and C mRNA; induction of granzyme A, B, and C mRNA required exogenous IL-2, whereas induction of perforin and IFN-gamma expression did not.
Title: IL-2 regulates perforin and granzyme gene expression in CD8+ T cells independently of its effects on survival and proliferation.
some cytolytic T lymphocytes mature into perforin/granzyme-expressing effector cells in the mediastinal lymph node and are detectable when they accumulate in lung infection
Title: Single-cell perforin and granzyme expression reveals the anatomical localization of effector CD8+ T cells in influenza virus-infected mice.
the genes for perforin, the three major T cell granzymes (A-C) and IFN-gamma are differentially expressed during primary activation of naive CD8(+) T cells, kinetically and at the single-cell level
Title: The genes for perforin, granzymes A-C and IFN-gamma are differentially expressed in single CD8(+) T cells during primary activation.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
