OSBP2 Gene (Protein Coding)

Oxysterol Binding Protein 2

GC22P030693
GIFtS:
39
The protein encoded by this gene contains a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain and an oxysterol-binding region. It binds oxysterols such as 7-ketocholesterol and may inhibit their cytotoxicity. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013] See more...
