Function: Major acute phase reactant. Apolipoprotein of the HDL complex. Tissue specificity: Expressed by the liver; secreted in plasma. Disease: Note=Reactive, secondary amyloidosis is characterized by the extracellular accumulation in various tissues of the SAA protein. These deposits are highly insoluble and resistant to proteolysis; they disrupt tissue structure and compromise function. Note=Elevated serum SAA protein levels may be associated with lung cancer. Similarity: Belongs to the SAA family. PTM: This protein is the precursor of amyloid protein A, which is formed by the removal of approximately 24 residues from the C-terminal end.
