NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a plasma glycoprotein that binds heme with high affinity. The encoded protein is an acute phase protein that transports heme from the plasma to the liver and may be involved in protecting cells from oxidative stress. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
Uniprot Description
HPX: Binds heme and transports it to the liver for breakdown and iron recovery, after which the free hemopexin returns to the circulation. Belongs to the hemopexin family.
Protein type: Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 11p15.5-p15.4
Cellular Component: extracellular space; extracellular region

Product Notes
The HPX hpx (Catalog #AAA844050) is a Protein and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Hemopexin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, SDS-PAGE. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the HPX hpx for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Hemopexin, Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
