Cat#:PA-4018F;Product Name:Rabbit Anti-Hamster Apolipoprotein AI Antibody;Synonym:Apo AI; Apo-AI; ApoA I; ApoA-I; APOA1; APOA1/APOC3 fusion gene; Apolipoprotein A I precursor; Apolipoprotein A-I(1-242); Apolipoprotein A1; Apolipoprotein AI; Apolipoprotein of high density lipoprotein; ApolipoproteinAI; Brp14; Ltw1; Lvtw1; MGC117399; Sep1; Sep2;Background:It has a specific role in lipid metabolism. Apolipoprotein A-I is the major protein component of high density lipoprotein (HDL) in plasma. Chylomicrons secreted from the intestinal enterocyte also contain ApoA1 but it is quickly transferred to HDL in the bloodstream. The protein promotes cholesterol efflux from tissues to the liver for excretion. It is a cofactor for lecithin cholesterolacyltransferase (LCAT) which is responsible for the formation of most plasma cholesteryl esters.;Description:Rabbit Anti-Hamster Apolipoprotein AI Polyclonal Antibody;Host Species:Rabbit;Species Reactivity:Hamster;Isotype:IgG2a;Storage:Store antibody products at 2-8°C.
