Anti-APOL1 / Apolipoprotein L1

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. Apolipoprotein L1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the APOL1 gene. It is mapped to 22q12.3. This gene encodes a secreted high density lipoprotein which binds to apolipoprotein A-I. Apolipoprotein A-I is a relatively abundant plasma protein and is the major apoprotein of HDL. It is involved in the formation of most cholesteryl esters in plasma and also promotes efflux of cholesterol from cells. This apolipoprotein L family member may play a role in lipid exchange and transport throughout the body, as well as in reverse cholesterol transport from peripheral cells to the liver. Several different transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Protein function: May play a role in lipid exchange and transport throughout the body. May participate in reverse cholesterol transport from peripheral cells to the liver. [The UniProt Consortium]
