Descriptor English: Apolipoprotein E3
Descriptor Spanish: Apolipoproteína E3
Descriptor apolipoproteína E3
Scope note: Proteína glicosilada de 34 kDa. La isoforma principal y más común de apolipoproteína E. Por consiguiente, se la conoce también como apolipoproteína E (ApoE). En los humanos, la Apo E3 es una proteína de 299 aminoácidos, con una cisteína en la posición 112 y una arginina en la posición 158. Está implicada en el transporte al interior y al exterior de la célula de los TRIGLICÉRIDOS, FOSFOLÍPIDOS, COLESTEROL y ÉSTERES DE COLESTEROL.

Scope note: A 34-kDa glycosylated protein. A major and most common isoform of apolipoprotein E. Therefore, it is also known as apolipoprotein E (ApoE). In human, Apo E3 is a 299-amino acid protein with a cysteine at the 112 and an arginine at the 158 position. It is involved with the transport of TRIGLYCERIDES; PHOSPHOLIPIDS; CHOLESTEROL; and CHOLESTERYL ESTERS in and out of the cells.
