Entrez Summary: This gene encodes an alpha-globulin protein with corticosteroid-binding properties. This is the major transport protein for glucorticoids and progestins in the blood of most vertebrates. The gene localizes to a chromosomal region containing several closely related serine protease inhibitors which may have evolved by duplication events. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
UniProt Summary: Major transport protein for glucocorticoids and progestins in the blood of almost all vertebrate species. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18513745}.
