Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein: a multifunctional protein.
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is a heterodimeric protein that transfers neutral lipids between membranes in vitro. Absence of this lipid transfer activity in the microsomes of abetalipoproteinemia patients established its pivotal function in lipoprotein assembly. Recent studies indicate that the lipid transfer activity is involved in importing triglycerides into the lumen of th...
متن کاملMicrosomal triglyceride transfer protein expression during mouse development.
Feto-maternal transfer of lipophilic nutrients is an important factor in the normal development of the fetus and may be mediated by lipoproteins as carriers of these nutrients. Two proteins that may be important in this process are apolipoprotein B (apoB, the major structural protein of secreted lipoproteins) and microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) whose normal activity is required f...
متن کاملEvidence that microsomal triglyceride transfer protein is limiting in the production of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins in hepatic cells.
The microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is a heterodimeric lipid transfer protein that is required for the assembly and secretion of apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins. A key unresolved question is whether the MTP-mediated step is rate limiting. To address this, a unique experimental strategy was used that allowed the in situ modulation and measurement of MTP triglycerid...
متن کاملMultiple functions of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) was first identified as a major cellular protein capable of transferring neutral lipids between membrane vesicles. Its role as an essential chaperone for the biosynthesis of apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing triglyceride-rich lipoproteins was established after the realization that abetalipoproteinemia patients carry mutations in the MTTP gene resu...
