Entrez 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 of a cluster of similar genes on chromosome 3. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009].
UniProt Summary: Type II acute-phase protein (APP) involved in inflammatory responses to trauma. May also play a role in liver development or regeneration. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19263524}.
