    Summary
    This gene encodes a component of high density lipoproteins (HDL). Mice lacking the encoded protein have low HDL-cholesterol levels, smaller HDL particles, increased clearance of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and insulin hypersensitivity. Transgenic mice overexpressing the encoded protein have elevated levels of HDL-cholesterol and show increased susceptibility to atherosclerosis. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
