Secondary Information

Protein Function Glycolipid transfer protein (GL-TP) participates in the intracellular traffic of glucosylceramide.
Biochemical Properties The glycolipid transfer protein (GLTP) is a protein capable of binding and transferring glycolipids. GLTP is cytosolic and it can interact through its FFAT-like (two phenylalanines in an acidic tract) motif with proteins localized on the surface of the endoplasmic reticulum.
