En komponent i högdensitetslipoproteiner. Den är av betydelse för flödet av kolesterol till levern, där det omsätts och avsöndras ur kroppen. Proteinet modulerar aktiveringen av lecitin-kolesterolacyl transferas i närvaro av apolipoprotein A-I.
The second most abundant protein component of HIGH DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS or HDL. It has a high lipid affinity and is known to displace APOLIPOPROTEIN A-I from HDL particles and generates a stable HDL complex. ApoA-II can modulate the activation of LECITHIN CHOLESTEROL ACYLTRANSFERASE in the presence of APOLIPOPROTEIN A-I, thus affecting HDL metabolism.
