What's a GeneRIF?

Data suggest that (1) interaction of Pitpna with membrane/lipid bilayer is spontaneous and mediated by four specific protein substructures; (2) ability of Pitpna to initiate closure around PC ligand is accompanied by loss of flexibility of two helix/loop regions, as well as of C-terminal helix; (3) energy barrier of PC/PI extraction from membrane is lowered by hydrogen bonding between lipid and Pitpna.

Lower protein expression of PI-TP(alpha and beta) in aged brain and in PD.
Title: Phosphatidylinositol transfer protein expression altered by aging and Parkinson disease.
Cys-to-Ala mutations of PITP show that neither Cys95 nor Cys188 is essential for lipid transfer activity; however, chemical modification of Cys95 results in the loss of lipid transfer activity.
Title: Modifications of cysteine residues in the solution and membrane-associated conformations of phosphatidylinositol transfer protein have differential effects on lipid transfer activity.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
