Haptoglobin is an α2-globulin found in normal plasma at a concentration of 82-236 mg/dl and accounts for 0.4-2.6% of the total plasma proteins. . The monomeric form of this acute phase plasma protein is composed of four polypeptide chains: two α chains and two β chains.
Haptoglobin is an acute phase protein that scavenges hemoglobin released into the circulation. Haptoglobin, the plasma protein with highest binding affinity to hemoglobin, is mainly expressed in the liver.
Application
