Description

alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein

Gene Summary

Enables receptor signaling protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of bone mineralization; negative regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway; and positive regulation of bone resorption. Located in extracellular matrix and extracellular space. Part of protein-containing complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alopecia-mental retardation syndrome 1; coronary artery disease; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human AHSG (alpha 2-HS glycoprotein).
