Entrez ID 197
Gene name Alpha 2-HS glycoprotein
Gene symbol AHSG
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
A2HSAHSAPMR1FETUAHSGA
Chromosome 3
Chromosome location 3q27.3
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a negatively-charged serum glycoprotein that is synthesized by hepatocytes. The encoded protein consists of two polypeptide chains, which are both cleaved from a proprotein encoded from a single mRNA. It is involved in
