Summary: Enables lipid transfer activity. Involved in lipoprotein transport. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including fatty acid transport; lipoprotein biosynthetic process; and sprouting angiogenesis. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus; basolateral plasma membrane; and endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including gut; liver; marginal blastomere; testis; and yolk syncytial layer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including abetalipoproteinemia; familial hypercholesterolemia; hyperinsulinism; metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease; and obesity. Orthologous to human MTTP (microsomal triglyceride transfer protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
