Synonyms
Apolipoprotein A-II, Apo-AII, ApoA-II, APOA2.
Introduction
APOA2 stabilizes the HDL structure by its relationship with lipids, and plays a role in the HDLMetabolism. APOA2 is the 2nd most abundant protein of the high density lipoprotein particles. APOA2 is localized in plasma as a monomer, homodimer, or heterodimer with apolipoprotein D. Defects in APOA2 gene might cause apolipoprotein A-II deficiency or hypercholesterolemia.
Description
APOA2 Human isolated from Human HDL is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain having a molecular mass of 17.38kDa. APOA2 is purified using delipidation and gel permeation chromatographic technique.
Source
Human HDL.
Physical Appearance
APOA2 is supplied as a sterile filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
The APOA2 1mg/ml solution contains 10mM Ammonium Bicarbonate at pH7.4.
Stability
APOA2 although stable at 4°C for 1 week, should be stored below -18°C.
For long term storage of APOA2 it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze thaw cycles.
