CLPS - colipase Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About CLPS
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 135 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Restricted expression toward pancreas (RPKM 17741.6).
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a cofactor needed by pancreatic Lipase for efficient dietary lipid hydrolysis. It binds to the C-terminal, non-catalytic domain of Lipase, thereby stabilizing an active conformation and considerably increasing the overall hydrophobic binding site. The gene product allows Lipase to anchor noncovalently to the surface of lipid micelles, counteracting the destabilizing influence of intestinal bile salts. This cofactor is only expressed in pancreatic acinar cells, suggesting regulation of expression by tissue-specific elements. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2011]
