Description of target: This gene encodes a precursor plasma protein that is cleaved to yield a signal peptide and two alternatively processed mature peptides. The encoded protein, which is a component of chylomicrons, very low density lipoproteins and high density lipoproteins, transports lipids from the intestines to other locations in the body. This protein binds to free fatty acids preventing their uptake by cells. This protein is a cofactor for lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase, an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of free cholesterol to cholesteryl esters. The encoded protein inhibits the activity of the cholesteryl ester transfer protein which promotes the exchange of neutral lipids between lipoproteins. In humans this gene is associated with risk of coronary artery disease and age-associated memory impairment. Mice lacking this gene demonstrate impaired memory. This gene is clustered with three other apolipoprotein genes on chromosome 7. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.;Species reactivity: Mouse;Application: ELISA;Assay info: ;Sensitivity: < 0.59ng/mL
