Two transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. Only one of the isoforms appears to be a secreted protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: May play a role in lipid exchange and transport throughout the body. May participate in reverse cholesterol transport from peripheral cells to the liver (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |ApoL| |lipoprotein metabolic process| |lipid binding| |lipid transport| |lipid localization| |intracellular membrane-bounded organelle| |molecular function| |lipid metabolic process| |extracellular space| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
