Alpha-Tocopherol Transfer Protein

Preferred Label : Alpha-Tocopherol Transfer Protein;

NCIt synonyms : TTPA; AlphaTTP; Alpha-TTP; Alpha Tocopherol Transfer Protein;

NCIt definition : Alpha-tocopherol transfer protein (278 aa, 32 kDa) is encoded by the human TTPA gene. This protein plays a role in vitamin E transport and binding to phosphatidylinositol phosphates (PIPs).;

NCIt note : Binding of alpha-tocopherol transfer protein to phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate or phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate is required for vitamin E transport activity.;
