[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>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
 +
Vitamin E is one of the most important natural antioxidants, protecting polyunsaturated fatty acids in the membranes of cells. Among different chemical isoforms assimilated from dietary regimes, RRR-alpha-tocopherol is the only one retained in higher animals. This is possible thanks to alpha-Tocopherol Transfer Protein (alpha-TTP), which extracts alpha-tocopherol from endosomal compartments in liver cells, facilitating its distribution into the body. Here we show that, upon binding to its substrate, alpha-TTP acquires tendency to aggregation into thermodynamically stable high molecular weight oligomers. Determination of the structure of such aggregates by X-ray crystallography revealed a spheroidal particle formed by 24 protein monomers. Oligomerization is triggered by refolding of the N-terminus. Experiments with cultured cell monolayers demonstrate that the same oligomers are efficiently transported through an endothelial barrier (HUVEC) and not through an epithelial one (Caco-2). Discovery of a human endogenous transport protein with intrinsic capability of crossing endothelial tissues opens to new ways of drug delivery into the brain or other tissues protected by endothelial barriers.
