APOC2

Apolipoprotein C-II, also known as APOC2, is a human gene.

PBB_Summary
section_title =
summary_text = The protein encoded by this gene is secreted in plasma where it is a component of very low density lipoprotein. This protein activates the enzyme lipoprotein lipase, which hydrolyzes triglycerides and thus provides free fatty acids for cells. Mutations in this gene cause hyperlipoproteinemia type IB, characterized by hypertriglyceridemia, xanthomas, and increased risk of pancreatitis and early atherosclerosis.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: APOC2 apolipoprotein C-II| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=344| accessdate = ]
