synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acid residues 140-151 of the human CETP protein.
Application
Anti-Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 2μg/mL using human liver extracts.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is also called plasma lipid transfer protein. It is encoded by CETP gene. It is a plasma protein that helps in the transport of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides between the lipoproteins. CETP is an important regulator of plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). It plays an important role in reverse cholesterol and is involved in metabolism of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Its deficiency is a unique plasma lipoprotein profile without any symptoms and is common in East Asia. It may act as a candidate gene for human longevity.

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP)-deficiency manifests a unique plasma lipoprotein profile without other apparent symptoms. It is highly common in East Asia while rather rare anywhere else. A potential environmental screening factor(s) may therefore contribute to this eccentric distribution, such
