Summary: Enables lipid transfer activity. Acts upstream of or within flagellated sperm motility and vitamin E biosynthetic process. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including bone marrow; central nervous system; genitourinary system; humerus cartilage condensation; and oral region epithelium. Used to study dry eye syndrome. Orthologous to human PLTP (phospholipid transfer protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

Profurin can interact with intracellular PLTP and promote its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, resulting in less PLTP secretion from the hepatocytes. Furin does not cleave PLTP; instead, it forms a complex with PLTP, likely through its prodomain

these data show that PLTP plays a role in modulating the adaptive immune response toward a pro-inflammatory phenotype, which may be an additional contributor to its pro-atherogenic effects

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
