About Pltp

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including lipid transfer activity; lipoprotein particle binding activity; and phospholipid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in high-density lipoprotein particle remodeling; lipid transport; and positive regulation of Cholesterol efflux. Predicted to act upstream of or within flagellated sperm motility and vitamin E biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in extracellular region and nucleus. Predicted to be part of high-density lipoprotein particle. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Orthologous to human PLTP (phospholipid transfer protein).
