Apoh Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity; lipoprotein lipase activator activity; and phospholipid binding activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of blood coagulation. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in artery smooth muscle; liver lobe; lung; lung epithelium; and lung vascular element. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in antiphospholipid syndrome; myocardial infarction; and peripheral vascular disease. Orthologous to human APOH (apolipoprotein H).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Apoh often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
