Facilitates the transfer of a spectrum of different lipid molecules, including sphingomyelin, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol, and phosphatidyl ethanolamine. Plays an important role in HDL remodeling which involves modulating the size and composition of HDL. Also plays a key role in the uptake of cholesterol from peripheral cells and tissues that is subsequently transported to the liver for degradation and excretion. Two distinct forms of PLTP exist in plasma: an active form that can transfer phosphatidylcholine from phospholipid vesicles to HDL, and an inactive form that lacks this capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDomain- and isoform-aware assay design to improve biological interpretation across model systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantitative workflows emphasizing calibration standards, spike-in controls, and cross-lot comparability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn vitro binding\/kinetics profiling (SPR\/BLI) to connect biochemical interactions with cellular phenotypes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrepare aliquots of Pltp for reproducible in vitro assays (minimize freeze–thaw).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse Pltp as a calibration standard in quantitative assays (standard curve setup).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasure binding interactions to Pltp by SPR\/BLI (kinetic profiling in vitro).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenerate antibodies to Pltp and benchmark specificity in ELISA\/WB (control samples).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterpret results in the context of the biological system, assay format, and any known domain\/isoform constraints for the target.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsider species- and isoform-specific differences when comparing results across models or homologs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor quantitative assays, include appropriate negative controls and matrix-matched spike-in concepts to assess non-specific signal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProtKB entry (P55065) — UniProt: https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb\/P55065 - NCBI Gene search (Pltp) — NCBI: https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=Pltp - PubMed search — NLM: https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=Pltp - Reactome pathway browser — Reactome: https:\/\/reactome.org\/ - InterPro protein family resource — EMBL-EBI: https:\/\/www.ebi.ac.uk\/interpro\/ --\u003e","brand":"CUSABIO TECHNOLOGY LLC","offers":[{"title":"1 mg","offer_id":53059256189293,"sku":"CSB-MP018212MO-1MG","price":3168.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug","offer_id":53059355804013,"sku":"CSB-MP018212MO-100UG","price":448.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 ug","offer_id":53059355836781,"sku":"CSB-MP018212MO-20UG","price":256.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/CSB-MP018212MO-SDS.jpg?v=1772280085","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/recombinant-mouse-phospholipid-transfer-protein-pltp-bhp10514371","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
