Quantitative Models of Lipid Transfer and Membrane Contact Formation
Lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) transfer lipids between different organelles, and thus play key roles in lipid homeostasis and organelle dynamics. The lipid transfer often occurs at the membrane contact sites (MCS) where two membranes are held within 10–30 nm. While most LTPs act as a shuttle to tran...
