NCIt definition : Human TTPA wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 8q12.3 and is approximately
38 kb in length. This allele, which encodes alpha-tocopherol transfer protein, is
involved in both phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) binding and alpha-tocopherol
transport. Mutations in the gene are associated with ataxia with isolated vitamin
E deficiency.;
