a2-Macroglobulin (a2M), is a 720kD homotetrameric glycoprotein composed of four identical 180kD subunit.
a2M shares with other a-macroglobulins, like the complement components C3 and C4 and the pregnancy zone protein PZP, an extraordinary binding capacity for a variety of ligands.
This allows the a-macroglobulins to serve as humoral defense barriers against foreign peptides in the plasma.
a2M interacts and captures virtually any proteinase, often referred to as a panprotease inhibitor.
In the brain of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients, a2M also has been localized to diffuse amyloid plaques, supporting an important role for a2M in AD etiopathology.
Applications:Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunoprecipitation.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
