Entrez gene ID336
Official gene symbolAPOA2
Full nameapolipoprotein A-II
Aliases,-,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes apolipoprotein (apo-) A-II, which is the second most abundant protein of the high density lipoprotein particles. The protein is found in plasma as a monomer, homodimer, or heterodimer with apolipoprotein D. Defects in this gene may result in apolipoprotein A-II deficiency or hypercholesterolemia.
