Apolipoprotein A2 is a 17.5 kDa protein with a pI of 4.9. Lipids, as such are insoluble in plasma. They combine with apolipoproteins to form lipoproteins and this process solubilises lipids in plasma, providing a transport system for lipids. Apolipoproteins also play an important role in lipoprotein receptor recognition and regulation of certain enzymes in lipoprotein metabolism. Two main forms of high density lipoprotein exist; both contain APOA1, but one type only contains APO A2.For more information on APO A2 please download the PDF catalogue below.
