背景信息

**Background of NPC1 Recombinant Protein**

The Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1) protein is a critical transmembrane glycoprotein encoded by the *NPC1* gene, located in the endosomal/lysosomal system. It plays a central role in intracellular cholesterol trafficking, facilitating the efflux of cholesterol and other lipids from lysosomes to cellular compartments. Mutations in *NPC1* cause Niemann-Pick disease type C (NPC), a rare lysosomal storage disorder characterized by progressive neurodegeneration, hepatosplenomegaly, and premature death.

NPC1 comprises 13 transmembrane domains, cytoplasmic N-terminal domains, and a sterol-sensing region. Its dysfunction disrupts lipid homeostasis, leading to lysosomal accumulation of unesterified cholesterol and glycosphingolipids. Studying NPC1’s structure-function relationship is essential for understanding NPC pathogenesis and developing therapies.

Recombinant NPC1 protein, produced via heterologous expression systems (e.g., mammalian CHO cells or *E. coli*), enables in vitro studies of its biochemical properties and interactions. Purified NPC1 is used to investigate cholesterol-binding mechanisms, screen small-molecule correctors (e.g., cyclodextrins), and evaluate gene therapy vectors. Recent advances include engineered NPC1 variants to enhance stability or delivery efficiency in preclinical models.

Research on NPC1 recombinant protein also explores its potential as a therapeutic agent, such as enzyme replacement therapy or nanoparticle-mediated delivery. Despite challenges in protein folding and lysosomal targeting, ongoing studies aim to translate these insights into treatments for NPC and related lipid metabolism disorders.
