About this item
beta-1-fetoprotein. beta-fetoprotein is a major plasma protein produced by the yolk sac and the liver during fetal life. beta-fetoprotein expression in adults is often associated with hepatoma or teratoma. However, hereditary persistance of beta-fetoprotein may also be found in individuals with no obvious pathology. The protein is thought to be the fetal counterpart of serum albumin, and the beta-fetoprotein and albumin genes are present in tandem in the same transcriptional orientation on chromosome 4. beta-fetoprotein is found in monomeric as well as dimeric and trimeric forms, and binds copper, nickel, fatty acids and bilirubin. The level of beta-fetoprotein in amniotic fluid is used to measure renal loss of protein to screen for spina bifida and anencephaly.
AFP antibody can be used for the detection of AFP by Western blot, may also work for IHC and ICC.
