OSBPL1A
Introduction
Oxysterol-binding protein-related protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the OSBPL1A gene.[1][2][3]
This gene encodes a member of the oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) family, a group of intracellular lipid receptors. Most members contain an N-terminal pleckstrin homology domain and a highly conserved C-terminal OSBP-like sterol-binding domain, although some members contain only the sterol-binding domain. Transcript variants derived from alternative promoter usage and/or alternative splicing exist; they encode different isoforms.[3]
