MeSH Heading: Phospholipid Transfer Proteins
Tree Number(s): D12.776.157.674; D12.776.543.693
Unique ID: D049294
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D049294
Scope Note: A ubiquitous family of proteins that transport PHOSPHOLIPIDS such as PHOSPHATIDYLINOSITOL and PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE between membranes. They play an important role in phospholipid metabolism during vesicular transport and SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION.
