Cholesterol stimulates the cellular uptake of L-carnitine by the carnitine/organic cation transporter novel 2 (OCTN2)

The carnitine/organic cation transporter novel 2 (OCTN2) is responsible for the cellular uptake of carnitine in most tissues. Being a transmembrane protein OCTN2 must interact with the surrounding lipid microenvironment to function. Among the main lipid species that constitute eukaryotic cells, chol...
