Description
GPIHBP1 (Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Anchored High-Density Lipoprotein Binding Protein 1) is a Protein Coding gene. The encoded protein is a member of the lymphocyte antigen 6 (Ly6) family. GPIHBP1 is an endothelial cell protein, which binds LPL in the subendothelial spaces and transports it to the capillary lumen. GPIHBP1 was positively correlated with LPL, and GPIHBP1 is a better marker for bodyweight decrease than LPL. GPIHBP1, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein of capillary endothelial cells, transports lipoprotein lipase to the capillary lumen and is essential for the lipolytic processing of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. Diseases associated with GPIHBP1 include Hyperlipoproteinemia, Type Id, and Hyperlipoproteinemia, Type I.
