Gene information for OSBPL8 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID114882
Official gene symbolOSBPL8
Full nameoxysterol binding protein-like 8
Aliases,DKFZp686A11164,MGC126578,MGC133203,MST120,MSTP120,ORP8,OSBP10,
Gene summaryThis 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. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
