Crystal Structure of Mouse PITP Alpha Void of Bound Phospholipid at 2.0 Angstroms Resolution
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 11980708
Disease
[PIPNA_MOUSE] Note=Defects in Pitpna are the cause of the vibrator phenotype which is characterized by early-onset progressive action tremor, degeneration of brain stem and spinal cord neurons, and juvenile death. The mutation is due to the insertion of an intracisternal A particle retrotransposon in intron 4 which results in a 5-fold reduction in protein levels.
Function
[PIPNA_MOUSE] Catalyzes the transfer of PtdIns and phosphatidylcholine between membranes.
