Alternative Names
Leucine-rich alpha-2-glycoprotein; LRG and LRG1
Background
LRG1 is a secreted protein and contains eight LRR repeats and one LRRCT domain, It can be expressed during granulocyte differentiation. LRG1 has been shown to be involved in protein-protein interaction, signal transduction, cell adhesion and development. Levels of the LRG protein are markedly elevated in acute appendicitis and therefore could be used as a diagnostic aid.
