Crystal structure of human α-tocopherol transfer protein bound to its ligand: Implications for ataxia with vitamin E deficiency

Human α-tocopherol (α-T) transfer protein (ATTP) plays a central role in vitamin E homeostasis, preventing degradation of α-T by routing this lipophilic molecule for secretion by hepatocytes. Mutations in the gene encoding ATTP have been shown to cause a severe deficiency in α-T, which results in a...
