NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
major component of high density lipoprotein (HDL) that is involved in intercellular cholesterol transport in astrocytes; cofactor for lecithin cholesterolacyltransferase (LCAT) [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
APOA1: Participates in the reverse transport of cholesterol from tissues to the liver for excretion by promoting cholesterol efflux from tissues and by acting as a cofactor for the lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT). As part of the SPAP complex, activates spermatozoa motility. Interacts with APOA1BP and CLU. Component of a sperm activating protein complex (SPAP), consisting of APOA1, an immunoglobulin heavy chain, an immunoglobulin light chain and albumin. Interacts with NDRG1. Major protein of plasma HDL, also found in chylomicrons. Synthesized in the liver and small intestine. The oxidized form at Met-110 and Met-136 is increased in individuals with increased risk for coronary artery disease, such as in carrier of the eNOSa/b genotype and exposure to cigarette smoking. It is also present in increased levels in aortic lesions relative to native ApoA-I and increased levels are seen with increasing severity of disease. Belongs to the apolipoprotein A1/A4/E family.

Product Notes
The ApoA1 apoa1 (Catalog #AAA840713) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The ApoA1 Antibody reacts with Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's ApoA1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Western blot analysis (0.5-4 ug/ml). Recombinant rat ApoA1 can be use as a positive control. However, the optimal conditions should be determined individually. Other applications have not been determined. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ApoA1 apoa1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ApoA1, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
