Descriptor alfa-macroglobulinas
Entry term(s) alfamacrofetoproteínas
globulinas alfa 2 de fase aguda
macroglobulinas alfa 2 lentas
Scope note: Glicoproteínas con un peso molecular de aproximadamente 620.000 a 680.000. La precipitación por electroforesis se produce en la región alfa. Incluyen las macroglobulinas alfa 1 y macroglobulinas alfa 2. Estas proteínas muestran capacidad de unión con la tripsina, quimotripsina, trombina y plasmina y funcionan como transportadores hormonales.

Scope note: Glycoproteins with a molecular weight of approximately 620,000 to 680,000. Precipitation by electrophoresis is in the alpha region. They include alpha 1-macroglobulins and alpha 2-macroglobulins. These proteins exhibit trypsin-, chymotrypsin-, thrombin-, and plasmin-binding activity and function as hormonal transporters.
