Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 259
Gene name Alpha-1-microglobulin/bikunin precursor
Gene symbol AMBP
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
A1MEDC1HCPHI30IATILITIITILITILCUTI
Chromosome 9
Chromosome location 9q32
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
