MTTP - microsomal triglyceride transfer protein Gene
Also Known as ABL; MTP
Species: Homo sapiens
About MTTP
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Biased expression in small intestine (RPKM 140.0), duodenum (RPKM 122.9) and 1 other tissue.
Summary
MTP encodes the large subunit of the heterodimeric microsomal triglyceride transfer protein. Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) completes the heterodimeric microsomal triglyceride transfer protein, which has been shown to play a central role in lipoprotein assembly. Mutations in MTP can cause abetalipoproteinemia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
