Target data

Function

Inhibitor of lipoprotein binding to the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor, LDL receptor-related protein, and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) receptor. Associates with high density lipoproteins (HDL) and the triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins in the plasma and makes up about 10% of the protein of the VLDL and 2% of that of HDL. Appears to interfere directly with fatty acid uptake and is also the major plasma inhibitor of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP). Binds free fatty acids and reduces their intracellular esterification. Modulates the interaction of APOE with beta-migrating VLDL and inhibits binding of beta-VLDL to the LDL receptor-related protein.

Notes

ab236616 is the carrier-free version of Anti-Apolipoprotein CI/Apo-CI antibody [EPR16813] ab198288.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

Apolipoprotein CI (Apo-CI) plays a mechanical role in lipid metabolism where it acts as an inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase hindering lipolytic activity. It is also known as 'apo 250' and 'apo atv20' with a molecular mass of approximately 6.6 kDa. Apo-CI is primarily expressed in the liver and secreted into the plasma where it associates with high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL).

Biological function summary

Apo-CI influences plasma triglyceride levels and cholesterol homeostasis. It plays a role in lipid transport and metabolism by modulating the binding of other apolipoproteins such as apo A-IV and interfering with the binding of lipoproteins to their receptors. Apo-CI is part of a complex of apolipoproteins that regulate lipid metabolism working in tandem to balance lipid and cholesterol levels in the body.

Pathways

Apo-CI is actively involved in the lipoprotein metabolism pathway and cholesterol efflux pathway. These pathways are important in maintaining lipid balance and cardiovascular health. Apo-CI is related to other apolipoproteins within these pathways such as apo E and apo A-I. Its function in modulating lipoprotein receptor interactions aligns with the broader mechanisms of these pathways in lipid and cholesterol regulation.

Associated diseases and disorders

Elevated levels of Apo-CI are associated with hyperlipidemia and cardiovascular disease. These conditions may result from its inhibitory effects on lipase activity leading to increased triglyceride levels. Apo-CI's interaction with other apolipoproteins such as apo B and apo E is linked to its role in the pathogenesis of these disorders. Understanding Apo-CI's involvement in these diseases can guide therapeutic strategies aimed at regulating its expression and function.
