TTPA - alpha tocopherol transfer protein Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as ATTP; AVED; TTP1; alphaTTP

Gene ID: 7274 | Gene type: protein coding

About TTPA

Cytogenetic location: 8q12.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:63,059,488-63,086,053 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Biased expression in liver (RPKM 30.1) and colon (RPKM 1.4).

Summary

This gene encodes a soluble protein that binds alpha-trocopherol, a form of vitamin E, with high selectivity and affinity. This protein plays an important role in regulating vitamin E levels in the body by transporting vitamin E between membrane vesicles and facilitating the secretion of vitamin E from hepatocytes to circulating lipoproteins. Mutations in this gene cause hereditary vitamin E deficiency (ataxia with vitamin E deficiency, AVED) and retinitis pigmentosa. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
