products description :
MyBioSource produces Alpha-1-Microglobulin (A1M) for clinical research and bulk diagnostics. Custom preparations, technical support, bulk quantities and aliquoting available. Human Alpha-1-Microglobulin (A1M) occurs in many physiological fluids including plasma, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid and appears not only as a free monomer but also in complexes with IgA and human albumin. A1M is used in the diagnosis of tubular proteinuria (eg, Fanconi syndrome, tubulo-interstitial disorders). Increased excretion in the urine shows the presence of renal tubular disease and increased levels may be present in nephrotic syndrome. We can custom produce alpha-1-microglobulin to your specifications

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a complex glycoprotein secreted in plasma. The precursor is proteolytically processed into distinct functioning proteins: alpha-1-microglobulin, which belongs to the superfamily of lipocalin transport proteins and may play a role in the regulation of inflammatory processes, and bikunin, which is a urinary trypsin inhibitor belonging to the superfamily of Kunitz-type protease inhibitors and plays an important role in many physiological and pathological processes. This gene is located on chromosome 9 in a cluster of lipocalin genes. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
