Function |
Plays a key role in the lipolytic processing of chylomicrons. Required for the transport of lipoprotein lipase LPL into the capillary lumen and across endothelial cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17403372, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17620854, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20620994}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Apical cell membrane; Lipid-anchor, GPI- anchor. Basolateral cell membrane; Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Extracellular side.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed on the luminal surface of capillary endothelium in heart, adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. Not detected in capillaries of the brain. Expressed at lower levels in lung and liver. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12496272, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17403372}.
