Crystal Structure of Human Alpha-Tocopherol Transfer Protein Bound to its Ligand

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 14657365

Disease

[TTPA_HUMAN] Defects in TTPA are the cause of ataxia with isolated vitamin E deficiency (AVED) [MIM: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.[1][2][3][4][5][6]

Function

[TTPA_HUMAN] Binds alpha-tocopherol and enhances its transfer between separate membranes.
