Apol9a - apolipoprotein L 9a

Predicted to enable lipid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in lipid transport and lipoprotein metabolic process. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and schizophrenia. Orthologous to several human genes including APOL1 (apolipoprotein L1); APOL2 (apolipoprotein L2); and APOL3 (apolipoprotein L3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
