Anti-Human APOC3 Polyclonal Antibody

Apolipoprotein C-III is a very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) protein. APOC3 inhibits lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase; it is thought to delay catabolism of triglyceride-rich particles. The APOA1, APOC3 and APOA4 genes are closely linked in both rat and human genomes. The A-I and A-IV genes are transcribed from the same strand, while the A-1 and C-III genes are convergently transcribed. An increase in apoC-III levels induces the development of hypertriglyceridemia.APOC3 (Apolipoprotein C3) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with APOC3 include Apolipoprotein C-Iii Deficiency and Hyperalphalipoproteinemia. Among its related pathways are Metabolism of fat-soluble vitamins and Statin Pathway. GO annotations related to this gene include lipid binding and cholesterol binding.
