Abstract excerpt
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) plays crucial roles in the assembly and secretion of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins and loss of function MTP variants are associated with abetalipoproteinemia, a disease characterized by the absence of these lipoproteins. MTP is a heterodimeric protein of two subunits, MTP and protein disulfide isomerase (PDI). In this study, we report a proband with...
