Function
Component of triglyceride-rich very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) and high density lipoproteins (HDL) in plasma. Plays a multifaceted role in triglyceride homeostasis. Intracellularly, promotes hepatic very low density lipoprotein 1 (VLDL1) assembly and secretion; extracellularly, attenuates hydrolysis and clearance of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs). Impairs the lipolysis of TRLs by inhibiting lipoprotein lipase and the hepatic uptake of TRLs by remnant receptors. Formed of several curved helices connected via semiflexible hinges, so that it can wrap tightly around the curved micelle surface and easily adapt to the different diameters of its natural binding partners.

- Sequence similarities
Belongs to the apolipoprotein C3 family.
- Post-translational modifications
The most abundant glycoforms are characterized by an O-linked disaccharide galactose linked to N-acetylgalactosamine (Gal-GalNAc), further modified with up to 3 sialic acid residues. Less abundant glycoforms are characterized by more complex and fucosylated glycan moieties. O-glycosylated on Thr-94 with a core 1 or possibly core 8 glycan.

- Activity summary
Apolipoprotein CIII also known as Apo C-III or ApoC3 is an apolipoprotein with a molecular mass of approximately 8.8 kDa. It is synthesized in the liver and intestine and circulates in the bloodstream primarily as part of very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) and high-density lipoproteins (HDL). Its main role involves the regulation of lipid metabolism particularly in relation to triglyceride-rich particles. Apo C-III serves as an inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase an enzyme essential for the hydrolysis of triglycerides into free fatty acids.
- Biological function summary
Apolipoprotein CIII plays a pivotal role in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. It is not part of a large protein complex but interacts with lipoproteins as a modulatory protein. Apo C-III affects triglyceride metabolism by delaying the clearance of VLDL and enhancing hepatic triglyceride secretion. Additionally it modulates the uptake of lipoprotein remnants by liver receptors thereby influencing the plasma levels of triglycerides and cholesterol.
- Pathways
Apolipoprotein CIII is involved in the regulation of lipid metabolic pathways. It plays a role in the lipoprotein assembly pathway and the triglyceride biosynthetic process. This protein impacts the interaction between lipoprotein lipase and its substrates hindering enzyme activity which leads to elevated plasma triglyceride levels. It relates closely to other apolipoproteins such as apolipoprotein E which also participates in lipid transport and metabolism although with distinct functions and regulatory mechanisms.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Apolipoprotein CIII is implicated in conditions like hypertriglyceridemia and cardiovascular disease. Elevated levels of Apo C-III contribute to high triglyceride levels promoting atherosclerosis development due to the retention of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in the bloodstream. This association links it to cardiovascular disease risk where its role contrasts with proteins like apolipoprotein AI which is mainly involved in protective effects via HDL metabolism. Understanding the modulation of Apo C-III levels offers potential therapeutic avenues for managing these lipid-related disorders.
