ID:A1AG1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein 1; Short=AGP 1; AltName: Full=Orosomucoid-1; Short=OMD 1; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: Functions as transport protein in the blood stream. Binds various ligands in the interior of its beta-barrel domain. Also binds synthetic drugs and influences their distribution and availability in the body. Appears to function in modulating the activity of the immune system during the acute-phase reaction. INTERACTION: P05121:SERPINE1; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-976767, EBI-953978; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. INDUCTION: Synthesis is controlled by glucocorticoids, interleukin-1 and interleukin-6, It increases 5- to 50-fold upon inflammation. DOMAIN: Contains a beta-barrel that binds various ligands in its interior. PTM: N-glycosylated. N-glycan heterogeneity at Asn-33: Hex5HexNAc4 (minor), Hex6HexNAc5 (major) and dHex1Hex6HexNAc5 (minor). POLYMORPHISM: Three common alleles of ORM1 are known. ORM1*F1 has Gln-38/Val-174; ORM1*F2 has Gln-38/Met-174 and ORM1*S has Arg- 38/Val-174. The sequence shown is that of allele ORM1*F1. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=CAA29229.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
