| DEFINITION |
Clusterin (449 aa, ~52 kDa) is encoded by the human CLU gene. This protein may be involved in lipid metabolism, complement regulation and the initiation of apoptosis. |
| DesignNote |
Clusterin can be cleaved into alpha and beta chains that are also known as ApoJ alpha and ApoJ beta. The two chains form an antiparallel disulfide-linked heterodimer. (UniProt) |
