Biohazard Information

Donor samples were tested and found to be negative for HBsAg , anti-HCV, anti-HBc, and negative for anti-HIV 1 & 2 . Nonetheless caution should be used when handling this material as there is a margin of error in all tests.

Biological Significance

Prealbumin is a serum protein found in plasma at 30mg per 100 mL. Functions in the transport of thyroxine , Vitamin A, and retinl-binding protein. Clinically, prealbumin is a sensitive indicator of impaired liver function; low levels are found in viral hepatitis , cirhosis , malnutrition, inflamation and surgical trauma.

Protein Family

Lipocalin

NCBI Summary for Prealbumin

This gene encodes a member of the lipocalin family of small secretory proteins. Lipocalins are extracellular transport proteins that bind to a variety of hydrophobic ligands. The encoded protein is the primary lipid binding protein in tears and is overproduced in response to multiple stimuli including infection and stress. The encoded protein may be a marker for chromosome aneuploidy as well as an autoantigen in Sjogren's syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene, and two pseudogenes of this gene are also located on the long arm of chromosome 9.

UniProt Comments for Prealbumin

Could play a role in taste reception. Could be necessary for the concentration and delivery of sapid molecules in the gustatory system. Can bind various ligands, with chemical structures ranging from lipids and retinoids to the macrocyclic antibiotic rifampicin and even to microbial siderophores. Exhibits an extremely wide ligand pocket.
