Bulk Qty Available.

A single chain glycoprotein which inhibits C1, C1r, C1s, plasma kallikrein, Factors XIa. XIIa, and plasmin. Present in plasma at 16-33 mg per 100 ml. C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency is a rare condition resulting in facial swelling and abdominal cramping. Usually the condition is hereditary, though it may also occur when the C1EI is non-functional.

Purity: >=95% by SDS-PAGE

Synonym: Complement C1 esterase inhibitor, Esterase inhibitor C-1
