Summary | This gene encodes one of the heavy subunits of inter alpha trypsin inhibitor that functions as a protease inhibitor circulating in the plasma. The encoded protein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature glycoprotein that is linked to the other subunits via an ester bond between the C-terminal aspartic acid residue and the N-acetyl galactosamine residue of chondroitin sulfate. This gene is located in a cluster of related inter alpha trypsin inhibitor genes on chromosome 14. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]. |
