Other Names | Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein large subunit, MTTP, MTP |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP9069b was selected from the C-term region of human MTTP. 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. |

Synonyms | MTP |
Function | Catalyzes the transport of triglyceride, cholesteryl ester, and phospholipid between phospholipid surfaces (PubMed:23475612, PubMed:8939939, PubMed:26224785, PubMed:25108285, PubMed:22236406, PubMed:16478722, PubMed:15897609, PubMed:8876250). Required for the assembly and secretion of plasma lipoproteins that contain apolipoprotein B (PubMed:23475612, PubMed:8939939, PubMed:26224785, PubMed:8876250, PubMed:16478722). May be involved in regulating cholesteryl ester biosynthesis in cells that produce lipoproteins (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum. Golgi apparatus. Note=Colocalizes with P4HB/PDI in the endoplasmic reticulum (PubMed:23475612, PubMed:26224785) |
Tissue Location | Liver and small intestine. Also found in ovary, testis and kidney. |

Background
MTTP encodes the large subunit of the heterodimeric microsomal triglyceride transfer protein. Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) completes the heterodimeric microsomal triglyceride transfer protein, which has been shown to play a entral role in lipoprotein assembly. Mutations in MTP can cause abetalipoproteinemia.
