GIFtS:
45
The protein encoded by this gene is an apolipoprotein that plays an important role in regulating the plasma triglyceride levels, a major risk factor for coronary artery disease. It is a component of high density lipoprotein and is highly similar to a rat protein that is upregulated in response to liver injury. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hypertriglyceridemi... See more...

Summaries for APOA5 Gene

Entrez Gene Summary for APOA5 Gene

  • The protein encoded by this gene is an apolipoprotein that plays an important role in regulating the plasma triglyceride levels, a major risk factor for coronary artery disease. It is a component of high density lipoprotein and is highly similar to a rat protein that is upregulated in response to liver injury. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hypertriglyceridemia and hyperlipoproteinemia type 5. This gene is located proximal to the apolipoprotein gene cluster on chromosome 11q23. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

GeneCards Summary for APOA5 Gene

APOA5 (Apolipoprotein A5) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with APOA5 include Hyperlipoproteinemia, Type V and Hypertriglyceridemia, Familial. Among its related pathways are Lipoprotein metabolism and Statin Pathway. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include enzyme binding and heparin binding. An important paralog of this gene is APOA4.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Summary for APOA5 Gene

  • Minor apolipoprotein mainly associated with HDL and to a lesser extent with VLDL. May also be associated with chylomicrons. Important determinant of plasma triglyceride (TG) levels by both being a potent stimulator of apo-CII lipoprotein lipase (LPL) TG hydrolysis and an inhibitor of the hepatic VLDL-TG production rate (without affecting the VLDL-apoB production rate) (By similarity). Activates poorly lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) and does not enhance efflux of cholesterol from macrophages. Binds heparin (PubMed:17326667).

Three common alleles are known: allele APOA5*1, APOA5*2 and APOA5*3. The APOA5*2 haplotype, which consists of 3 non-coding SNPs, is present in approximately 16% of Caucasians and is associated with increased plasma triglyceride concentrations. APOA5*3 haplotype is defined by the rare Ser-19-Trp substitution. Together, the APOA5*2 and APOA5*3 haplotypes are found in 25 to 50% of African Americans, Hispanics, and Caucasians.

  • Hypertriglyceridemia, familial (FHTR) [MIM:145750]: A common inherited disorder in which the concentration of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) is elevated in the plasma. This leads to increased risk of heart disease, obesity, and pancreatitis. Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
  • Hyperlipoproteinemia 5 (HLPP5) [MIM:144650]: Characterized by increased amounts of chylomicrons and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and decreased low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) in the plasma after a fast. Numerous conditions cause this phenotype, including insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, contraceptive steroids, alcohol abuse, and glycogen storage disease type 1A (GSD1A). {ECO:0000269 PubMed:16200213}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
