| Description: | The protein encoded by this gene is a glycoprotein,belonging to the pentraxin family of proteins, which has acharacteristic pentameric organization. These family members haveconsiderable sequence homology which is thought to be the result ofgene duplication. The binding of the encoded protein to proteins inthe pathological amyloid cross-beta fold suggests its possible roleas a chaperone. This protein is also thought to control thedegradation of chromatin. It has been demonstrated that thisprotein binds to apoptotic cells at an early stage, which raisesthe possibility that it is involved in dealing with apoptotic cellsin vivo. |
| Further Information: | Purified His-tagged APCS protein(Fragment) was used to produced this monoclonal antibody. |
