Secondary Information | |
Presence in other biological fluids/tissue/cells | Serum, plasma, inflammatory synovial fluid, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, urine |
Protein Function | Protease inhibitory activity; inhibits the excessive protease activity in the human body fluids, plays an important role in regulation of hormones, growth factors and physiological activity; |
Biochemical Properties | Presence of a special bait region is responsible for trapping proteases and inhibiting their activities by steric hindrance; protease inhibitory activity was reduced to 25% and 2.7% at 60°C and 80°C; low at pH 7.0 or below and high at pH 9.0; |
Significance in milk | Acute phase proteins; levels elevate in mastitic milk; prevents clotting of mastitic milk by inhibiting renin |
PTMs | Glycosylayted; 4 identical subunits have 8-N glycosylated sites in each subunit as found in humans; |
