| Standard Name | OSH6 1 |
|---|---|
| Systematic Name | YKR003W |
| Feature Type | ORF, Verified |
| Description | Member of an oxysterol-binding protein family; overlapping, redundant functions in sterol metabolism and which collectively perform a function essential for viability; GFP-fusion protein localizes to the cell periphery; overexpression extends lifespan by promoting vacuolar fusion; OSH6 has a paralog, OSH7, that arose from the whole genome duplication (1, 2, 3, 4) |
