Species
Homo sapiens
Symbol
OSBPL8
Name
oxysterol binding protein like 8
Synonyms
  • DKFZp686A11164
  • MGC126578
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables cholesterol binding activity; phosphatidylserine transfer activity; and phospholipid binding activity. Involved in fat cell differentiation; negative regulation of sequestering of triglyceride; and phospholipid transport. Located in cortical endoplasmic reticulum.
RGD Description
This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins containing an N-terminal pleckstrin homology domain and a highly conserved C-terminal oxysterol-binding protein-like sterol-binding domain. It binds mutliple lipid-containing molecules, including phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) and oxysterol, and promotes their exchange between the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
