Other Names | Cholesteryl ester transfer protein, Lipid transfer protein I {ECO:0000312|MIM:118470}, CETP (HGNC:1869) |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP7440a was selected from the N-term region of human CETP. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | CETP (HGNC:1869) |
---|---|
Function | Involved in the transfer of neutral lipids, including cholesteryl ester and triglyceride, among lipoprotein particles. Allows the net movement of cholesteryl ester from high density lipoproteins/HDL to triglyceride-rich very low density lipoproteins/VLDL, and the equimolar transport of triglyceride from VLDL to HDL (PubMed:3600759, PubMed:24293641, PubMed:3281933). Regulates the reverse cholesterol transport, by which excess cholesterol is removed from peripheral tissues and returned to the liver for elimination (PubMed:17237796). |
Cellular Location | Secreted. Note=Secreted in plasma |
Tissue Location | Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. |

Background
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) transfers cholesteryl esters between lipoproteins. CETP may effect susceptibility to atherosclerosis.
