About Apoc2

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including identical protein binding activity; Lipase activator activity; and Phospholipase binding activity. Involved in lipoprotein transport and response to xenobiotic stimulus. Predicted to be located in extracellular space. Predicted to be part of several cellular components, including low-density lipoprotein particle; spherical high-density lipoprotein particle; and triglyceride-rich plasma lipoprotein particle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial Apolipoprotein C-II deficiency; familial hyperlipidemia; and multiple sclerosis. Orthologous to human APOC2 (Apolipoprotein C2).
