This gene encodes a complex glycoprotein secreted in plasma. The precursor is proteolytically processed into distinct functioning proteins: alpha-1-microglobulin, which belongs to the superfamily of lipocalin transport proteins and may play a role in the regulation of inflammatory processes, and bikunin, which is a urinary trypsin inhibitor belonging to the superfamily of Kunitz-type protease inhibitors and plays an important role in many physiological and pathological processes. This gene is located on chromosome 9 in a cluster of lipocalin genes.

AMBP (alpha-1-microglobulin/bikunin precursor) is a secreted precursor processed into alpha-1-microglobulin (A1M), an antioxidative lipocalin, and bikunin, a serine-protease inhibitor. It is studied in extracellular oxidative-stress control, protease regulation and inter-alpha-inhibitor biology.
Biological function: Proteolytic processing of AMBP produces two functionally distinct proteins. Alpha-1-microglobulin binds and scavenges heme and reactive radicals and contributes to protection from oxidative tissue damage. Bikunin inhibits several serine proteases and contributes to inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor family complexes in extracellular protease regulation.
