Cell localization:Secreted.adiponectin, C1Q and collagen domain containing(ADIPOQ) Homo sapiens This gene is expressed in adipose tissue exclusively. It encodes a protein with similarity to collagens X and VIII and complement factor C1q. The encoded protein circµLates in the plasma and is involved with metabolic and hormonal processes. Mutations in this gene are associated with adiponectin deficiency. MµLtiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2010],
