PITPNA Protein, Human (His)
PITPNA Protein catalyzes phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylcholine (PC) transfer between membranes, displaying a preference for shorter saturated or monosaturated acyl chains at sn-1 and sn-2 positions. For PC, the preference order is C16:1 > C16:0 > C18:1 > C18:0 > C20:4, and for PI, it is C16:1 > C16:0 > C18:1 > C18:0 > C20:4 > C20:3. PITPNA Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived PITPNA protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity
PITPNA Protein catalyzes phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylcholine (PC) transfer between membranes, displaying a preference for shorter saturated or monosaturated acyl chains at sn-1 and sn-2 positions. For PC, the preference order is C16:1 > C16:0 > C18:1 > C18:0 > C20:4, and for PI, it is C16:1 > C16:0 > C18:1 > C18:0 > C20:4 > C20:3. PITPNA Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived PITPNA protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.
PITPNA protein functions as a catalyst in the transfer of phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylcholine (PC) between cellular membranes. This enzyme exhibits a notable preference for PI and PC molecules that possess shorter saturated or monosaturated acyl chains at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions. The preference order for PC substrates is C16:1 > C16:0 > C18:1 > C18:0 > C20:4, while for PI substrates, it is C16:1 > C16:0 > C18:1 > C18:0 > C20:4 > C20:3. The dynamic lipid transfer mediated by PITPNA contributes to the regulation of lipid composition in cellular membranes, influencing various cellular processes and maintaining membrane homeostasis.
