lipid transfer protein (glycolipid transfer protein)

accelerates glycolipid exchange; catalyzes net transfer of glycosphingolipids from brush border membrane vesicles; also facilitates transfer of glucosyl-, galactosyl- & lactosylceramide from liposomal vesicles to red ghost cells; see also record for phospholipid exchange protein
