Gene nameCETP
Protein nameCholesteryl ester transfer protein
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (Lipid transfer protein I)
SynonymshCG_23902
DescriptionFUNCTION: Involved in the transfer of neutral lipids, including cholesteryl ester and triglyceride, among lipoprotein particles. Allows the net movement of cholesteryl ester from high density lipoproteins/HDL to triglyceride-rich very low density lipoproteins/VLDL, and the equimolar transport of triglyceride from VLDL to HDL . Regulates the reverse cholesterol transport, by which excess cholesterol is removed from peripheral tissues and returned to the liver for elimination . .
