Phospholipid transfer protein

Rabbit IgG, 1mg/ml in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide, 50% glycerol, pH7.2

1 mg/ml

Facilitates the transfer of a spectrum of different
lipid molecules, including diacylglycerol, phosphatidic acid,
sphingomyelin, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol,
cerebroside and phosphatidyl ethanolamine. Essential for the
transfer of excess surface lipids from triglyceride-rich
lipoproteins to HDL, thereby facilitating the formation of smaller
lipoprotein remnants, contributing to the formation of LDL, and
assisting in the maturation of HDL particles. PLTP also plays a
key role in the uptake of cholesterol from peripheral cells and
tissues that is subsequently transported to the liver for
degradation and excretion. Two distinct forms of PLTP exist in
plasma: an active form that can transfer PC from phospholipid
vesicles to high-density lipoproteins (HDL), and an inactive form
that lacks this capability.
