Abstract
Compositions and methods relating to ApoA-1 fusion polypeptides are disclosed. The fusion polypeptides include a first polypeptide segment corresponding to an ApoA-1 polypeptide or ApoA-1 mimetic, and may also include a dimerizing domain such as, e.g., an Fc region, which is typically linked carboxyl-terminal to the first polypeptide segment via a flexible linker. In some embodiments, the fusion polypeptide further includes a second polypeptide segment located carboxyl-terminal to the first polypeptide segment and which confers a second biological activity (e.g., an RNase, paraoxonase, platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase, cholesterol ester transfer protein, lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase, polypeptide that specifically binds to proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9, or polypeptide that specifically binds to amyloid beta). Also disclosed are dimeric proteins comprising first and second ApoA-1 fusion polypeptides as disclosed herein. The fusion polypeptides and dimeric proteins are useful in methods for therapy.
