NCBI Protein Information
glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored lipid protein transfer 1
NCBI Summary
Encodes LTPG1, a lipid transfer protein with a predicted GPI (glycosylphosphatidylinositol)-anchor domain. Localized in the plasma membrane. Disruption of the LTPG1 gene causes alterations of cuticular lipid composition, but no significant changes on total wax and cutin monomer loads are seen.

UniProt Comments
Lipid transfer protein that, together with LTPG2, binds to lipids and functions as a component of the cuticular lipid export machinery that performs extensive export of intracellular lipids (e.g. C29 alkane) from epidermal cells to the surface to build the cuticular wax layer and silique walls. Involved in the establishment of resistance to the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Alternaria brassicicola.
