epitope corresponding to amino acids 1-205 representing full length ALR of human origin
Modification Notes
ALR (augmenter of liver regeneration), also called Erv1-like growth factor, hepatopoietin (HPO) or hepatic regenerative stimulation substance (HSS), is a hepatotrophic growth factor and flavin-linked sulfhydryl oxidase expressed in various tissues. ALR exists as a homodimer and belongs to the Erv1/ALR family of proteins. This family can be found in higher and lower eukaryotes. ALR has two forms: a cytosolic form and a nuclear form. The nuclear form regulates the transcriptional activity of AP-1. The cytosolic form plays a role in the biogenesis of Fe/S proteins and contributes to cellular iron homeostasis. In addition, ALR induces the expression of S-adenosylmethionine decarboxyl-ase and ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), which each play an important role in the synthesis of polyamines. Through stimulation of polyamine synthesis, ALR heavily contributes to the regulation of the different stages of liver regeneration.
