MeSH definition : Structural proteins of the alpha-lipoproteins (HIGH DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS), including
APOLIPOPROTEIN A-I and APOLIPOPROTEIN A-II. They can modulate the activity of LECITHIN
CHOLESTEROL ACYLTRANSFERASE. These apolipoproteins are low in atherosclerotic patients.
They are either absent or present in extremely low plasma concentration in TANGIER
DISEASE.;
MeSH synonym : apoa; apo-a;
MeSH annotation : do not confuse with APOLIPOPROTEIN (A);
