1 Inter-domain dynamics drive cholesterol transport by NPC1 and NPC1L1 proteins. Cholesterol NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Homo sapiens
2 Transport of LDL-derived cholesterol from lysosomes into the cytoplasm requires NPC1 protein; NPC1L1 mediates uptake of dietary cholesterol. Cholesterol NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Homo sapiens
3 Using a sensitive method to monitor lysosomal cholesterol efflux, we found that NPC1"s N-terminal domain need not release from the rest of the protein for efficient cholesterol export. Cholesterol NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Homo sapiens
4 Using a sensitive method to monitor lysosomal cholesterol efflux, we found that NPC1"s N-terminal domain need not release from the rest of the protein for efficient cholesterol export. Cholesterol NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Homo sapiens
5 These data support a model in which cholesterol passes through the cores of NPC1/NPC1L1 proteins; concerted movement of various domains is needed for transfer and ezetimibe blocks transport by binding to multiple domains simultaneously. Cholesterol NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Homo sapiens
