Molecular characterization of the NPC1L1 variants identified from cholesterol low absorbers.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 4 Mar 2011

Wang Li-Juan, Wang Jing, Li Na, Ge Liang, Li Bo-Liang, Song Bao-Liang

Abstract excerpt

Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1) is an essential protein for dietary cholesterol absorption. Nonsynonymous (NS) variants of NPC1L1 in humans have been suggested to associate with cholesterol absorption variations. However, information concerning the characteristics and mechanism of these variants...
