A portion of amino acids 71-100 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for this ABP1 antibody.
Amiloride binding protein 1 is a membrane glycoprotein that is expressed in many epithelium-rich and/or hematopoietic tissues and oxidatively deaminates putrescine and histamine. The protein may play a role in controlling the level of histamine and/or putrescine in these tissues. It also binds to and is inhibited by amiloride, a diuretic that acts by closing epithelial sodium ion channels.
