Recombinant Human Apolipoprotein C-II(APOC2)

Component of chylomicrons, very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), low-density lipoproteins (LDL), and high-density lipoproteins (HDL) in plasma. Plays an important role in lipoprotein metabolism as an activator of lipoprotein lipase. Both proapolipoprotein C-II and apolipoprotein C-II can activate lipoprotein lipase. In normolipidic individuals, it is mainly distributed in the HDL, whereas in hypertriglyceridic individuals, predominantly found in the VLDL and LDL.
