Structural insights into the mechanism of human NPC1L1-mediated cholesterol uptake
Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1) protein plays a central role in the intestinal cholesterol absorption and is the target of a drug, ezetimibe, which inhibits NPC1L1 to reduce cholesterol absorption. Here, we present cryo–electron microscopy structures of human NPC1L1 in apo state, cholesterol-enriche...
