Protein attributes

Sequence length	83 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Appears to modulate the interaction of APOE with beta-migrating VLDL and inhibit binding of beta-VLDL to the LDL receptor-related protein. Binds free fatty acids and reduces their intracellular esterification. Ref.13
Subcellular location	Secreted.
Tissue specificity	Synthesized mainly in liver and to a minor degree in intestine. Secreted in plasma.
Miscellaneous	Apolipoprotein C-I is present in acidic (APOC1A) and basic (APOC1B) forms in P.paniscus, P.abelii and P.troglodytes and perhaps also in baboons and macaques. In human, the acidic form has become a pseudogene. Apo-CI makes up about 10% of the protein of the VLDL (very low density lipoprotein) and 2% of that of HDL (high density lipoprotein).
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the apolipoprotein C1 family.
