- Description
- Predicted to have phospholipid transporter activity. Involved in several processes, including fatty acid transport; lipoprotein biosynthetic process; and sprouting angiogenesis. Predicted to localize to Golgi apparatus; basolateral plasma membrane; and endoplasmic reticulum. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including abdominal obesity-metabolic syndrome 1; abetalipoproteinemia; hyperinsulinism; non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; and obesity. Is expressed in several structures, including gut; liver; marginal blastomere; testis; and yolk syncytial layer. Orthologous to human MTTP (microsomal triglyceride transfer protein).
