Synonyms LDLCQ7; NPC1-like intracellular cholesterol transporter 1; NPC11L1; NPC1L1; SLC65A2
DT Family Resistance-Nodulation-Cell Division (RND) Superfamily
Eukaryotic (Putative) Sterol Transporter (EST) Family
Function This transporter 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 absorption. 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. Acts as a negative regulator of NPC2 and down-regulates its expression and secretion by inhibiting its maturation and accelerating its degradation.
