Gene information for APOC1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID341
Official gene symbolAPOC1
Full nameapolipoprotein C-I
Aliases,-,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the apolipoprotein C1 family. This gene is expressed primarily in the liver, and it is activated when monocytes differentiate into macrophages. A pseudogene of this gene is located 4 kb downstream in the same orientation, on the same chromosome. This gene is mapped to chromosome 19, where it resides within a apolipoprotein gene cluster. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene, but the biological validity of some variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq]
