Preparation and Storage

Background: Apolipoprotein H/ApoH

Apolipoprotein H (ApoH also known as beta 2-Glycoprotein 1/ beta 2-GPI) is a 50 kDa secreted monomeric glycoprotein member of the complement control superfamily of molecules. It is produced by hepatocytes and is bound to HDL particles. Circulating ApoH blocks the intrinsic clotting pathway and binds to exposed phospholipids on apoptotic cells. Mature human ApoH contains four Sushi repeats (aa 21‑260) and one C-terminal kringle domain (aa 261‑345) that binds heparin and phospholipids. At least two isoforms exist. One shows a 31 aa substitution for aa 140‑345, while a second represents a bioactive plasmin cleavage product that removes the C-terminal nine amino acids. Mature human ApoH shares 76% aa identity with mouse ApoH.
