Secondary Information

Presence in other biological fluids/tissue/cells Serum;
Protein Function Role in bone formation, opsonization, cellular immunity; modulate the inflammatory potential of basic calcium phosphate crystals associated with various clinical manifestations of inflammation; chondrocyte differentiation ; negative acute phase proteins; free fatty acid transporter; enhances cellular lipid uptake and lipogenesis
Biochemical Properties composed of two polypeptides, the A and B chains, and shares a high degree of amino acid identity with fetuin; mouse AHSG shares 60% and 65% amino acid identity with human AHSG and bovine fetuin; A and B chains of human AHSG, held together by a disulfide bond, are generated by limited proteolysis at Arg-Thr, equivalent position at bovine fetuin sequence is Pro-lie
Significance in milk Abundant in mastitic milk; enhances lipid uptake and lipogenesis in milk
PTMs three potential N-glycosylation sites identified in mouse AHSG are conserved in bovine fetuin, while only two of them are conserved in human AHSG; in humans A-chain of a2HS contains 2 biantennary N- and 2 O-linked glycans; N-glycan has a2-6 NeuAc residues, 4 Gal, αMan, N glycans are partially (~90%) sialylated; O-glycans have partially sialylated 2.5 α2-3-linked NeuAc; 3 0-trisaccharides have the structure NeuAcα2-3Gal01-3GalNAcαl- 0
