Gene data
OSBPL3- Name
- oxysterol binding protein like 3
- Type
- protein-coding
- Aliases
- ORP-3, ORP3, OSBP3
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. The encoded protein is involved in the regulation of cell adhesion and organization of the actin cytoskeleton. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
