Purity | Anti-Alpha-1-Acid Glycoprotein Antibody is an IgG fraction antibody purified from monospecific antiserum by a multi-step process which includes delipidation, salt fractionation and ion exchange chromatography followed by extensive dialysis against the buffer stated above. Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-Peroxidase, anti-Rabbit Serum as well as purified and partially purified a-1-Acid Glycoprotein [Human Plasma]. Cross reactivity against a-1-Acid Glycoprotein from other sources is unknown. |
Storage Condition | Store vial at 4° C prior to restoration. For extended storage aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. |
Precautions Note | This product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |
Name | ORM1 |
---|---|
Synonyms | AGP1 |
Function | Functions as a transport protein in the blood stream. Binds various ligands in the interior of its beta-barrel domain. Also binds synthetic drugs and influences their distribution and availability in the body. Appears to function in modulating the activity of the immune system during the acute-phase reaction. |
Cellular Location | Secreted. |
Tissue Location | Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. |

Background
Alpha-1-Acid Glycoprotein Antibody detects alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP or AAG. ) Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein is an acute phase (acute phase protein) plasma alpha-globulin glycoprotein and is modulated by two polymorphic genes. It is synthesized primarily in hepatocytes and has a normal plasma concentration between 0.6-1.2 mg/mL (1-3% plasma protein).[1] Plasma levels are affected by pregnancy, certain drugs, and certain diseases, particularly HIV. The only established function of ORM is to act as a carrier of basic and neutrally charged lipophilic compounds. In medicine, it is known as the primary carrier of basic drugs (whereas albumin carries acidic drugs), steroids, and protease inhibitors. Aging causes a small decrease in plasma albumin levels; if anything, there is a small increase in α1 acid glycoprotein. The effect of these changes on drug protein binding and drug delivery, however, appear to be minimal. Anti-Alpha-1-Acid Glycoprotein Antibody is ideal for investigators involved in infectious disease and cell cycle protein research.
