  • Molecular weight expected аpparent
    Free bikunin appears as a smear between 60-80 kDa, because the protein core carries sulfated proteoglycans.The most common bikunin complexes are called pre-alpha-inhibitor (PaI) and inter-alpha-inhibitor (IaI) and appears as approximately 120 and 180 kDa.

  • Scientific context
    Bikunin is a Kunitz-type protease inhibitor synthesized in the liver. The AMBP gene resides in the lipocalin cluster and encodes alpha-1-microglobulin together with a Kunitz-type proteinase inhibitor, bikunin. The gene is translated into the alpha-1-microglobulin-bikunin precursor, which is subsequently cleaved and the two proteins are secreted to the blood separately. Bikunin exhibits anti-inflammatory activity in protection against cancer and inflammation.
  • Notes
    This antibody is also reacting with the AMBP precursor.
