Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein and its role in apoB-lipoprotein assembly
Apolipoprotein B (ap1111190) and microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) are necessary for lipoprotein assembly. ApoB consists of five structural domains, βα1-β1-α2-β2-α3. We propose that MTP contains three structural motifs (N-terminal β-barrel, central α-helix, and C-terminal lipid cavity)...
