PolymorphismA homozygous transition at position 1 of intron 3 of APOA2 results in deficiency of apolipoprotein A-II, without significant influence either on lipid and lipoprotein profiles or on the occurrence of coronary artery disease [MIM:107670].
PtmApolipoprotein A-II is O-glycosylated. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23234360}.
PtmPhosphorylation sites are present in the extracellular medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19824718}.
SimilarityBelongs to the apolipoprotein A2 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationSecreted.
SubunitHomodimer; disulfide-linked. Also forms a disulfide- linked heterodimer with APOD. Interacts with HCV core protein. Interacts with APOA1BP and NDRG1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11991719, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12269810, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15922294}.
Tissue SpecificityPlasma; synthesized in the liver and intestine.
