Bridge-like lipid transfer protein family
bridge-like lipid transfer protein family
Bridge-like lipid transporter proteins are key regulators of intraorganellar lipid trafficking. The BLTP proteins form physical bridges that span the gap between a donor and a receiver organelle and are are formed by multiple repeats of one motif: a repeating beta groove (RBG), which forms an extremely long semi-open tube with a hydrophobic interior.
