Anti-Fetuin A (Alpha-2-Z-globulin, Ba-alpha-2-glycoprotein, Fetuin-A)

Alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein (AHSG) also known as fetuin-A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AHSG gene. Fetuin-A belongs to the fetuin class of plasma binding proteins and is more abundant in fetal than adult blood. Its gene is mapped to 3q27. The protein is commonly present in the cortical plate of the immature cerebral cortex and bone marrow hemopoietic matrix. It is involved in several functions, such as endocytosis, brain development and the formation of bone tissue. UniProt Number: P02765, Gene ID: AHSG, Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot.
