Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryApolipoprotein C-III is a very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) protein. APOC3 inhibits lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase; it is thought to delay catabolism of triglyceride-rich particles. The APOA1, APOC3 and APOA4 genes are closely linked in both rat and human genomes. The A-I and A-IV genes are transcribed from the same strand, while the A-1 and C-III genes are convergently transcribed. An increase in apoC-III levels induces the development of hypertriglyceridemia.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P02656 # 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.
SIZE: 99 amino acids; 10852 Da
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Constitutes 50% of the protein fraction of VLDL and 2% of that of HDL. Synthesized predominantly in liver and to a lesser degree in intestine.
PTM: O-linked glycan consists of Gal-GalNAc disaccharide, further modified with up to 3 sialic acid residues.
DISEASE:SwissProt: P02656 # Defects in APOC3 may be a cause of hyperalphalipoproteinemia [MIM:143470]. Affected individuals show high levels of alpha-lipoprotein (high density lipoprotein/HDL).
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P02656 ## Belongs to the apolipoprotein C3 family.
