Anti-OSB10

This gene encodes a member of the oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) family, a group of intracellular lipid receptors. Like most members, the encoded protein contains an N-terminal pleckstrin homology domain and a highly conserved C-terminal OSBP-like sterol-binding domain. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010], Protein function: Probable lipid transporter involved in lipid countertransport between the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane. Its ability to bind phosphatidylserine, suggests that it specifically exchanges phosphatidylserine with phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P), delivering phosphatidylserine to the plasma membrane in exchange for PI4P (PubMed:23934110) (Probable). Plays a role in negative regulation of lipid biosynthesis (PubMed:19554302). Negatively regulates APOB secretion from hepatocytes (PubMed:19554302, PubMed:22906437). Binds cholesterol and acidic phospholipids (PubMed:22906437). Also binds 25- hydroxycholesterol (PubMed:17428193). Binds phosphatidylserine (PubMed:23934110).
