Summary
This gene encodes a member of the apolipoprotein L family. The encoded protein may play a role in lipid exchange and transport throughout the body, as well as in reverse cholesterol transport from peripheral cells to the liver. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2020]
