NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes apolipoprotein (apo-) A-II, which is the second most abundant protein of the high density lipoprotein particles. The protein is found in plasma as a monomer, homodimer, or heterodimer with apolipoprotein D. Defects in this gene may result in apolipoprotein A-II deficiency or hypercholesterolemia.

Uniprot Description
Function: May stabilize HDL (high density lipoprotein) structure by its association with lipids, and affect the HDL metabolism.
Subunit structure: Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Also forms a disulfide-linked heterodimer with APOD. Interacts with HCV core protein. Interacts with APOA1BP and NDRG1. Ref.15 Ref.16 Ref.19 Ref.23
Subcellular location: Secreted.
Tissue specificity: Plasma; synthesized in the liver and intestine.
Post-translational modification: Met-49 is oxidized to methionine sulfoxide.Phosphorylation sites are present in the extracellular medium.Apolipoprotein A-II is O-glycosylated. Ref.22
Polymorphism: A homozygous transition at position 1 of intron 3 of APOA2 results in deficiency of apolipoprotein A-II, without significant influence either on lipid and lipoprotein profiles or on the occurrence of coronary artery disease [
MIM:107670].
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the apolipoprotein A2 family.
Mass spectrometry: Molecular mass is 17252 Da from positions 24 - 100. Determined by ESI. Homodimer, without methionine sulfoxide. Ref.17Molecular mass is 17269 Da from positions 24 - 100. Determined by ESI. Homodimer, with 1 methionine sulfoxide, oxidation at Met-49. Ref.17Molecular mass is 8701.2 Da from positions 24 - 100. Determined by MALDI. Ref.18Molecular mass is 8823.4 Da from positions 24 - 100. Determined by MALDI. Cysteinylated ApoA-II. Ref.18Molecular mass is 17421.3 Da from positions 24 - 100. Determined by MALDI. Homodimer. Ref.18Molecular mass is 17293.4 Da from positions 24 - 100. Determined by MALDI. Heterodimer with truncated apolipoprotein A-II. Ref.18Molecular mass is 8578.3 Da from positions 24 - 99. Determined by MALDI. Ref.18Molecular mass is 17166.2 Da from positions 24 - 99. Determined by MALDI. Homodimer. Ref.18

Product Notes
The Apo AII apoa2 (Catalog #AAA390106) is a Protein and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Apolipoprotein AII (Apo AII) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, SDS-PAGE. Purity > 98% by SDS-PAGE. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Apo AII apoa2 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 "Apolipoprotein AII (Apo AII), Protein" 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
