Glycolipid Transfer Protein Domain Containing Protein 2 (GLTPD2)

GLTPD2, Belongs to the GLTP family. GLTP is similar to bovine and porcine proteins which accelerate transfer of certain glycosphingolipids and glyceroglycolipids between membranes. It is thought to be a cytoplasmic protein.Detected in fibroblasts (at protein level). Detected in fibroblasts and in various cancer cell lines.

Glycolipid transfer protein is a cytosolic protein that catalyses the transfer of glycolipids between different intracellular membranes. This protein transport primarily different glycosphingolipids and glyceroglycolipids between intracellular membranes, but not phospholipids. It might be also involved in translocation of glucosylceramides. It was found in brain, kidney, spleen, lung, cerebellum, liver and heart.
