PLTP  
    


    
      Official symbol:  PLTP
      Full name:  phospholipid transfer protein
      Location:  20q13.12
      Also known as:  BPIFE
      Entrez ID:  5360
      Ensembl ID:  ENSG00000100979
      Summary:  The protein encoded by this gene is one of at least two lipid transfer proteins found in human plasma. The encoded protein transfers phospholipids from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins to high density lipoprotein (HDL). In addition to regulating the size of HDL particles, this protein may be involved in cholesterol metabolism. At least two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
