Gene: [06q27/APOLPA] apolipoprotein Lp(a) (pre-beta-1 system); atherosclerosis, liability to; lower plasma apo(a) concentration, association with;
FUN | Lp(a) glycoprotein, in conjunction with apolipoprotein B (GEM:02p2/APOB), forms the lipoprotein(a) serum system. The system is an important factor of atherogenesis and pathogenesis of coronary disease. Apo(a) is thought to have proteolytic activity resembling that of plasmin (EC:3.4.21.7)." |
MOP | [1] Usually a
lipoprotein(a) particle contains two apo(a) molecules which are covalently
bound to the apoB100 molecule by the disulfide bridges. [2] Recently an interindividual polymorphism of number of repeats within 'kringle IV' region of Lp(a) peptide have been found (Kondo-1990). This polymorphism might explain the presence of Lp(a) isoforms described in Uterman-1987,1988a,1988b." |
FOG | Increased serum Lp(a) is inherited as quasi-dominant mendelian trait. |
ASS | Increased serum Lp(a) is thought to be an important risk factors for coronary disease that is independent of other factors, such as nutrition, smoking and, hormonal status." |
EVO | The amino acid sequence of this protein shows the high homology to that of plasminogen, which gene (GEM:06q2/PLG) is also located in Chr 6q and closely linked with the APOLPA." |
BIB | The bibliography on the general problems of atherogenesis, coronary disease and the role of other apolipoprotein serum systems is available in FAM:APOLP/00.0." |
