APOH, also known asbeta2Glycoprotein-1 (B2GP-1) is a plasma glycoprotein that circulates at aconcentration of 200 ug/mL (4mM). B2GP-1 has been identified as a constituentof chylomicrons, very low density lipoproteins and high density lipoproteinsin Human plasma. It has also been demonstrated to bind phospholipids, heparinand platelets where it can modulate the activity of adenylate (19percent).Although the precise functions) are as yet unknown, B2GP-1 has been shown tointerfere with blood coagulation by competitively binding to phospholipidsexposed during cell activation or damage.
