==The Molecular Basis of Vitamin E Retention: Structure of Human Alpha-Tocopherol Transfer Protein==
-
Alpha-tocopherol transfer protein (alpha-TTP) is a liver protein, responsible for the selective retention of alpha-tocopherol from dietary, vitamin E, which is a mixture of alpha, beta, gamma, and delta-tocopherols, and the corresponding tocotrienols. The alpha-TTP-mediated transfer of, alpha-tocopherol into nascent VLDL is the major determinant of plasma, alpha-tocopherol levels in humans. Mutations in the alpha-TTP gene have, been detected in patients suffering from low plasma alpha-tocopherol and, ataxia with isolated vitamin E deficiency (AVED). The crystal structure of, alpha-TTP reveals two conformations. In its closed tocopherol-charged, form, a mobile helical surface segment seals the hydrophobic binding, pocket. In the presence of detergents, an open conformation is observed, which probably represents the membrane-bound form. The selectivity of, alpha-TTP for RRR-alpha-tocopherol is explained from the van der Waals, contacts occurring in the lipid-binding pocket. Mapping the known, mutations leading to AVED onto the crystal structure shows that no, mutations occur directly in the binding pocket.

[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TTPA_HUMAN TTPA_HUMAN] Defects in TTPA are the cause of ataxia with isolated vitamin E deficiency (AVED) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/277460 277460]. AVED is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by spinocerebellar degeneration. It causes ataxia and peripheral neuropathy that resembles Friedreich ataxia. AVED patients have markedly reduced plasma levels of vitamin E.<ref>PMID:8602747</ref> <ref>PMID:9463307</ref> <ref>PMID:7719340</ref> <ref>PMID:7566022</ref> <ref>PMID:15065857</ref> <ref>PMID:15300460</ref>
