This allele, which encodes serine protease HTRA1 protein, is involved in the mediation of proteolysis. Variations in the promoter of the gene are associated with age-related macular degeneration type 7. Mutation of the gene is associated with cerebral autosomal recessive arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy.
