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. |
