Summaries for Alpha-Fetoprotein Deficiency

About this section
UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot : 74 Alpha-fetoprotein deficiency: A benign condition characterized by undetectable AFP levels in the amniotic fluid. Affected individuals are asymptomatic and present normal development.

MalaCards based summary : Alpha-Fetoprotein Deficiency, is also known as afpd. An important gene associated with Alpha-Fetoprotein Deficiency is AFP (Alpha Fetoprotein). Affiliated tissues include liver, and related phenotype is decreased levels of alpha-fetoprotein.

OMIM : 57 Alpha-fetoprotein deficiency appears to be a benign genetic trait (Greenberg et al., 1992; Sharony et al., 2004). (615969)
