A lipid transfer protein that transfers lipid

Very few lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) have been caught in the act of transferring lipids in vivo from a donor membrane to an acceptor membrane. Now, two studies (Halter, D., S. Neumann, S.M. van Dijk, J. Wolthoorn, A.M. de Maziere, O.V. Vieira, P. Mattjus, J. Klumperman, G. van Meer, and H. Sprong. 2007. J. Cell Biol. 179:101–115; D'Angelo, G., E. Polishchuk, G.D. Tullio, M. Santoro, A.D. Campli, A. Godi, G. West, J. Bielawski, C.C. Chuang, A.C. van der Spoel, et al. 2007. Nature. 449:62–67) agree that four-phosphate adaptor protein 2 (FAPP2) transfers glucosylceramide (GlcCer), a lipid that takes an unexpectedly circuitous route.
