products description :
Principle of the Assay This assay employs the competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with APOC3. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) conjugated antibody preparation specific for APOC3. The competitive inhibition reaction is launched between with pre-coated APOC3 and APOC3 in samples. A substrate solution is added to the wells and the color develops in opposite to the amount of APOC3 in the sample. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes an apolipoprotein which is the major protein component of very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) and a minor component of high-density lipoproteins (HDL). The encoded protein is thought to regulate the metabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and play a role in lipid storage and the mobilization of fat cells. This gene is clustered with three other apolipoprotein genes on chromosome 9 and is associated with coronary disease. Mice lacking this gene have lower levels of total cholesterol in the plasma. Mutations in the human genes causes hyperalphalipoproteinemia 2, a disorder of lipid metabolism which results in a favorable lipid profile (lower LDL-cholesterol, higher HDL-cholesterol and lower levels of serum triglycerides when fasting and after a meal). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
uniprot summary :
APOC3: Inhibits lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase and decreases the uptake of lymph chylomicrons by hepatic cells. This suggests that it delays the catabolism of triglyceride-rich particles. Defects in APOC3 are the cause of hyperalphalipoproteinemia type 2 (HALP2). HALP2 is a condition characterized by high levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) and increased HDL cholesterol levels. Belongs to the apolipoprotein C3 family. Protein type: Lipid-binding; Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide. Cellular Component: extracellular space; chylomicron; cell; extracellular region. Molecular Function: lipid binding. Biological Process: response to peptide hormone stimulus; cholesterol metabolic process; triacylglycerol metabolic process; lipoprotein transport; transport; triacylglycerol catabolic process; lipoprotein metabolic process; lipid metabolic process; triacylglycerol mobilization; lipid transport; lipid catabolic process
