Background Information
NPC1 like intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 (NPC1L1) is a multi-pass membrane protein which has 1332 amino acids and containing a conserved N-terminal Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1) domain and a putative sterol-sensing domain (SSD). It is only found in the tubular membranes of primate hepatocytes and the brush-border membranes of the small intestine of mammals. PC1L1 is a key protein for intestinal absorption of cholesterol and plays an important role in cholesterol balance. Cholesterol contributes to cell proliferation, invasion and latency, and is essential for tumor formation and growth, so NPC1L1 plays a critical role in tumor development and spread (PMID: 36034854).
