Cholesteryl ester transfer protein molecule. Computer model showing the structure of a molecule of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP,coloured spheres and blobs) bound to a high-density lipoprotein (HDL,lower right). Lipoproteins are the major carriers of cholesterol in the blood and are mainly composed of lipids. CETP,also called plasma lipid transfer protein,is a plasma protein that facilitates the transport of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides between the lipoproteins | |
