Microsomal Triglyceride Transfer Protein Information

Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein large subunit is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MTTP gene.[1][2]

MTP encodes the large subunit of the heterodimeric microsomal triglyceride transfer protein. Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) completes the heterodimeric microsomal triaglyceride transfer protein, which has been shown to play a central role in lipoprotein assembly. Mutations in MTP can cause abetalipoproteinemia.[2]

Apoprotein B48 on chylomicra and Apoprotein B100 on LDL, IDL, and VLDL are important for MTP binding.
