APOL1 - apolipoprotein L1 Gene
Also Known as APOL; APO-L; FSGS4; APOL-I
Species: Homo sapiens
About APOL1
This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 509 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in liver (RPKM 56.2), urinary bladder (RPKM 39.7) and 21 other tissues.
Summary
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. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]
