Abstract excerpt
The plasma phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) belongs to the lipid transfer/lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LT/LBP) family, together with the cholesteryl ester transfer protein, the lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP) and the bactericidal permeability increasing protein (BPI). In the present study, we used the crystallographic data available for BPI to build a three-dimensional model for PLTP. Multiple...
