  Lenght: 396 a.a.
  Mass: 45399 Da
  
    fasta formatted sequence
  Function:
   May have a role in chylomicrons and VLDL secretion and catabolism. Required for efficient activation of lipoprotein lipase by ApoC-II; potent activator of LCAT. Apoa-IV is a major component of HDL and chylomicrons.
  
  Cellular location:
   Secreted.
  
  Tissue specificity:
   Synthesized primarily in the intestine and secreted in plasma.
  
Genetic variants
  
  
     Eight alleles have been characterized (APOA-IV*0 to APOA-IV*7). APOA-IV*1 is the major allele (90%), APOA-IV*2 is also common (8%), the others are rare alleles. The sequence shown represents allele APOA-IV*1.
