SAA

INTRODUCTION
Serum amyloid A protein which is a member of the SAA family is encoded by the SAA gene in humans. SAA is expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. Serum amyloid A is the main acute phase reactant and apolipoprotein of the HDL complex. Elevated serum SAA protein levels may be linked with lung cancer. The level of Apo-SAA, which is ordinarily 1-5 ?g/ml in plasma, increases 500-1000 fold within 24 hours of an inflammatory stimulus and, under these conditions, is the most abundant HDL Apolipoprotein.

DESCRIPTION
APO-SAA Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 104 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 11.7kDa. Recombinant Apo-SAA is a consensus SAA molecule corresponding to human Apo-SAA1a, except for the presence of an N-terminal methionine, the substitution of asparagine for aspartic acid at position 60, and arginine for histidine at position 71 (the latter two substituted residues are present in Apo-SAA2b).
The Human APO-SAA is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
