phosphatidylinositol [PI] transfer protein

Function

• mediate monomeric transport of lipids by shielding a lipid from the aqueous environment * binding the lipid in a hydrophobic cavity

More general terms

• carrier protein (transporter)
• phosphoprotein

• cytoplasmic phosphatidylinositol transfer protein 1; retinal degeneration B homolog beta; RdgBbeta; MrdgBbeta; M-rdgB beta (PITPNC1)
• phosphatidylinositol transfer protein alpha isoform; Ptdins transfer protein alpha; PtdinsTP; PI-TP-alpha (PITPNA, PITPN)
• phosphatidylinositol transfer protein beta isoform; Ptdins transfer protein beta; PtdinsTP; PI-TP-beta (PITPNB)
