Record overview

LMPD IDLMP001570
Gene ID346
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameapolipoprotein C-IV
Gene SymbolAPOC4
SynonymsAPO-CIV; APOC-IV
Alternate namesapolipoprotein C-IV; apolipoprotein C4
Chromosome19
Map Location19q13.2
SummaryThis gene encodes a lipid-binding protein belonging to the apolipoprotein gene family. The protein is thought to play a role in lipid metabolism. Polymorphisms in this gene may influence circulating lipid levels and may be associated with coronary artery disease risk. This gene is present in a cluster with other related apolipoprotein genes on chromosome 19. Naturally occurring read-through transcription exists between this gene and the neighboring downstream apolipoprotein C-II (APOC2) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
