The primary translation product of the APOA4 gene is a 396-residue preprotein, which undergoes proteolytic processing to yield apo A-IV, a 376-residue mature O-linked glycoprotein. In most mammals, including humans, apo A-IV synthesis is confined to the [[intestine]]; however in mice and rats hepatic synthesis also occurs. Apo A-IV is secreted into circulation on the surface of newly synthesized [[chylomicron]] particles. Intestinal fat absorption dramatically increases the synthesis and secretion of apo A-IV. Although its primary function in human lipid metabolism has not been established, apo A-IV has been found to:
* activate [[lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase]] and [[cholesterylester transfer protein]] in vitro;
* play a role in the regulation of [[appetite]] and [[satiety]] in rodent models;
* display [[anti-oxidant]] and anti-[[atherosclerosis|atherogenic]] properties in vitro and in rodent models;
* modulate the efficiency of enterocyte and hepatic transcellular [[lipid]] transport in vitro.<ref name="entrez">{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: APOA4 apolipoprotein A-IV| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=337| accessdate = }}</ref>

Apolipoprotein A-IV (also known as apoA-IV, apoAIV, or apoA4) is plasma protein that is the product of the human gene APOA4.[1][2]

Gene

APOA4 resides on chromosome 11 in close linkage to APOA1 and APOC3. APOA4 contains 3 exons separated by two introns, and is polymorphic, although most of the reported sequence polymorphisms occur in exon 3. The best validated and studied non-synonymous SNPs are a glutaminehistidine substitution at codon 360 and a threonineserine substitution at codon 347; a sequence polymorphism has also been identified in the 3'UTR of the third exon.[3] Intra-species comparative gene sequence analysis suggests that the APOA4 gene arose from APOA1 by gene duplication approximately 270 MYA.[4]

Function

The primary translation product of the APOA4 gene is a 396-residue preprotein, which undergoes proteolytic processing to yield apo A-IV, a 376-residue mature O-linked glycoprotein. In most mammals, including humans, apo A-IV synthesis is confined to the intestine; however in mice and rats hepatic synthesis also occurs. Apo A-IV is secreted into circulation on the surface of newly synthesized chylomicron particles. Intestinal fat absorption dramatically increases the synthesis and secretion of apo A-IV. Although its primary function in human lipid metabolism has not been established, apo A-IV has been found to:

Human apo A-IV deficiency has not been reported.

Interactions

APOA4 has been shown to interact with GPLD1.[5]
