Comments
Comment typeDescription
Developmental StageHighly expressed in the yolk syncytial layer during embryonic (starting at the blastula stage) and early larval development, an extraembryonic structure implicated in embryonic and larval nutrition. Also observed in the deep cell layer during blastula stage, in numerous ectodermal derivatives after gastrulation, and after 3 days of development in a limited number of cells both in brain and in the eyes.
FunctionAssociated with several classes of plasma lipoproteins, it mediates uptake of lipoproteins through its ability to interact with specific cell surface receptors.
SimilarityBelongs to the apolipoprotein A1/A4/E family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationSecreted.
