Predicted to enable several functions, including identical protein binding activity; lipase activator activity; and phospholipase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of transport; positive regulation of lipase activity; and regulation of lipid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in extracellular space. Predicted to be part of several cellular components, including low-density lipoprotein particle; spherical high-density lipoprotein particle; and triglyceride-rich plasma lipoprotein particle. Is expressed in several structures, including capillary; central nervous system; liver; lung; and yolk sac endoderm.
