Apolipoprotein C1
Das Gen APC1 kodiert das Apolipoprotein C1, eine wichtige Komponente beim CETP-vermittelten Cholesterinesther-Transfer. Es könnte somit eine Bedeutung für die HDL-Cholesterinspiegel und damit die Arteriosklerose-Progression besitzen.
Genstruktur
Die 4 Apolipoproteine APOE, APOC1, APOC4 und APOC2 befinden sich hintereinander in der selben Orientierung auf dem Chromosom 19 (19q13.2). Das APOC1 besitzt auch noch ein Pseudogen, welches zwischen APOC1 und APOC4 liegt. Das exprimierte APOC1 besteht aus 4 Exons, von denen die Exons 2-4 das Protein kodieren.
Interpretation
Die Insertionsvariante des Promotors scheint im Zusammenhang mit dem APOE Typ epsilon4 mit der Alzheimererkrankung assoziiert.
