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-enriched state, and ezetimibe-bound state to reveal molecular details of NPC1L1-mediated cholesterol uptake and ezetimibe inhibition. Comparison of these structures reveals that the sterol-sensing domain (SSD) could respond to the cholesterol leve
