ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a multi-pass membrane protein. It contains a conserved N-terminal Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1) domain and a putative sterol-sensing domain (SSD) which includes a YQRL motif functioning as a plasma membrane to trans-Golgi network transport signal in other proteins. This protein takes up free cholesterol into cells through vesicular endocytosis and plays a critical role in the absorption of intestinal cholesterol. It also has the ability to transport alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E). The drug ezetimibe targets this protein and inhibits the absorption of intestinal cholesterol and alpha-tocopherol. In addition, this protein may play a critical role in regulating lipid metabolism. Polymorphic variations in this gene are associated with plasma total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and coronary heart disease (CHD) risk. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
uniprot summary :
NPC1L1: Play a major role in cholesterol homeostasis. Is critical for the uptake of cholesterol across the plasma membrane of the intestinal enterocyte. Is the direct molecular target of ezetimibe, a drug that inhibits cholesterol absorbtion. Lack of activity leads to multiple lipid transport defects. The protein may have a function in the transport of multiple lipids and their homeostasis, and may play a critical role in regulating lipid metabolism. Interacts with RAB11A, MYO5B and RAB11FIP2. Interaction with RAB11A, MYO5B and RAB11FIP2 is required for proper transport to the plasma membrane upon cholesterol depletion. Expression is decreased in Caco-2 cells upon PPARD activation. Widely expressed. Expressed in liver. Also expressed in small intestine, pancreas, kidney, lung, pancreas, spleen, heart, gall bladder, brain, testis, stomach and muscle. Belongs to the patched family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Membrane protein, multi-pass; Membrane protein, integral. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 7p13. Cellular Component: apical plasma membrane; brush border membrane; cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; integral to membrane; plasma membrane. Molecular Function: drug binding; hedgehog receptor activity; myosin V binding; protein binding; Rab GTPase binding. Biological Process: cholesterol absorption; cholesterol biosynthetic process; cholesterol homeostasis; cholesterol transport; lipoprotein metabolic process; response to drug; signal transduction; sterol transport
