APOD

Also known as Apo-D
Summary
APOD (apolipoprotein D, HGNC:612) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 3q29, encoding Apolipoprotein D (P05090). APOD occurs in the macromolecular complex with lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase.
This gene encodes a component of high density lipoprotein that has no marked similarity to other apolipoprotein sequences. It has a high degree of homology to plasma retinol-binding protein and other members of the alpha 2 microglobulin protein superfamily of carrier proteins, also known as lipocalins. This glycoprotein is closely associated with the enzyme lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase - an enzyme involved in lipoprotein metabolism.
