Abstract The Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1) protein is one of the key players of cholesterol
trafficking from the lysosome and its function is closely coupled with the Niemann-Pick type
C2 (NPC2) protein. The dysfunction of one of these proteins can cause problems in the
overall cholesterol homeostasis and leads to a disease, which is called the Niemann-Pick
type C (NPC) disease. The parts of the cholesterol transport mechanism by NPC1 have
begun to recently emerge, especially after the full-length NPC1 structure was determined …
