      Background InformationEpididymal secretory protein E1 (UniProt P61916; also known as Human epididymis-specific protein 1, He1, Niemann-Pick disease type C2 protein) is encoded by the NPC2 (also known as HE1) gene (Gene ID 10577) in human. Niemann-Pick C1 & C2 (NPC1 & NPC2) proteins are involved in the transport of cholesterol and other lipids out of late endosomes and lysosomes. NPC1 is a large membrane spanning glycoprotein mainly located in the late endosomes, while NPC2 is a small soluble protein that binds nonesterified cholesterol with high affinity. NPC1 and NPC2 defects affect the intracellular trafficking of unesterified cholesterol and other lipids, causing the rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder known as Niemann-Pick type C disease. The majority of NPC patients have a defect in NPC1 (95%), while only 5% of the NPC cases are due to mutations in NPC2.
