Molecular Cloning of Limulusα2‐Macroglobulin

1 Dec 1996

Abstract excerpt

The American horseshoe crab Limulus polyphemus contains alpha 2-macroglobulin (alpha 2M) in the hemolymph plasma and hemocytes. alpha 2M from Limulus shows many of the typical characteristics of mammalian alpha 2M, including the presence of an internal thiol-ester, reactivity with a diversity of endopeptidases, a unique proteinase-trapping mechanism, and reactivity with the mammalian alpha 2M receptor....
