It is thought to function as an ER chaperone and may also act as a component of membrane cytoskeletal scaffolds

Haptoglobin Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul[BT-AP09816] Cell Separation and Collection Alternative splicing results in transcriptThis gene encodes a preproprotein, which is processed to yield both alpha and beta chains, which subsequently combine as a tetramer to produce haptoglobin. Haptoglobin functions to bind free plasma hemoglobin, which allows degradative enzymes to gain access to the hemoglobin, while at the same time preventing loss of iron through the kidneys and protecting the kidneys from damage by hemoglobin.
