| DEFINITION |
Adiponectin (244 aa, ~26 kDa) is encoded by the human ADIPOQ gene. This protein is involved in the modulation of both glucose metabolism and lipid homeostasis. |
| DesignNote |
Adiponectin can be found in plasma as trimers (low molecular weight complexes or LMW), hexamers (middle molecular weight complexes or MMW) and 12- to 18-mers (higher molecular weight or HMW). MMW and HMW complexes are made up of disulfide-linked trimers. (UniProt) |
