ncbi 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]
uniprot summary :
APOL1: May play a role in lipid exchange and transport throughout the body. May participate in reverse cholesterol transport from peripheral cells to the liver. Defects in APOL1 are the cause of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis type 4 (FSGS4). It is a renal pathology defined by the presence of segmental sclerosis in glomeruli and resulting in proteinuria, reduced glomerular filtration rate and edema. Renal insufficiency often progresses to end-stage renal disease, a highly morbid state requiring either dialysis therapy or kidney transplantation. Belongs to the apolipoprotein L family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Secreted, signal peptide; Lipid-binding; Channel, chloride; Secreted. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 22q13.1. Cellular Component: extracellular space; extracellular region; intrinsic to membrane. Molecular Function: protein binding; chloride channel activity; lipid binding. Biological Process: cholesterol metabolic process; receptor-mediated endocytosis; killing of cells of another organism; cytolysis; innate immune response; lipoprotein metabolic process; chloride transport; lipid transport.
