Gene name Inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain 4
Gene symbol ITIH4
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
GP120H4PIHRPITI-HC4ITIHL1PK-120PK120
Chromosome 3
Chromosome location 3p21.1
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is secreted into the blood, where it is cleaved by plasma kallikrein into two smaller forms. Expression of this gene has been detected only in liver, and it seems to be upregulated during surgical trauma. This gene is part
