Functional Families

Overview of the Structural Clusters (SC) and Functional Families within this CATH Superfamily. Clusters with a representative structure are represented by a filled circle.

Superfamily: Apolipoprotein C-II

Structural domains comprising this superfamily share the structure of apolipoprotein C-II (apoC-II), a surface constituent of plasma lipoproteins and the activator for lipoprotein lipase (LPL) that is central for lipid transport in blood. Lipoprotein lipase is a key enzyme in the regulation of triglyceride levels in human serum PMID:10903476. The C-terminal helix of apoC-II is responsible for the activation of LPL PMID:12590574.
