General notes
Amyloidosis includes a family of diseases which have in common the extracellular deposition of ß-pleated fibrillar protein. Amyloidosis associated with chronic inflammatory conditions (AA-type) and Amyloidosis related to plasma cel dyscrasia (AL-type) are the most common, but the frequency of amyloidosis associated with chronic haemodialysis (B2M-type) is growing rapidly. Reu-86.2 can be used in routine diagnosis of amyloidosis both for detection of the AA-type as for the discimination from the other types of amyloidosis such as the B2M- and AL-type.

Target
-
FunctionMajor acute phase reactant. Apolipoprotein of the HDL complex.
-
Tissue specificityExpressed by the liver; secreted in plasma.
-
Involvement in diseaseNote=Reactive, secondary amyloidosis is characterized by the extracellular accumulation in various tissues of the SAA protein. These deposits are highly insoluble and resistant to proteolysis; they disrupt tissue structure and compromise function.
Note=Elevated serum SSA protein levels may be associated with lung cancer. -
Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the SAA family.
-
Post-translational
modificationsThis protein is the precursor of amyloid protein A, which is formed by the removal of approximately 24 residues from the C-terminal end. -
Cellular localizationSecreted.
