---|---|
Other Names | Alpha-tocopherol transfer protein, Alpha-TTP, TTPA, TPP1 |
Target/Specificity | This TTPA antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 82-108 amino acids from the Central region of human TTPA. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | TTPA Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | TTPA |
---|---|
Synonyms | TPP1 |
Function | Binds alpha-tocopherol, enhances its transfer between separate membranes, and stimulates its release from liver cells (PubMed:7887897). Binds both phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate; the resulting conformation change is important for the release of the bound alpha-tocopherol (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. |

Background
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.
