Cholesterol Ester Transfer Proteins

Known as: Cholesterol Ester Transport Protein, CETP, Cholesterol Ester Transfer Proteins [Chemical/Ingredient], Cholesteryl Ester Exchange Protein 
Proteins that bind to and transfer CHOLESTEROL ESTERS between LIPOPROTEINS such as LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS and HIGH-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS.
