SGD DescriptionProtein similar to mammalian oxysterol-binding protein; contains ankyrin repeats and FFAT motif; interacts with ER anchor Scs2p at the nucleus-vacuole junction; regulated by sterol binding; SWH1 has a paralog, OSH2, that arose from the whole genome duplication|Member of an oxysterol-binding protein family with seven members; in S. cerevisiae, family members have overlapping, redundant functions in sterol metabolism and collectively perform a function essential for viability; contains FFAT motif; interacts with ER anchor Scs2p at patches at the plasma membrane and at the nuclear envelope; regulated by sterol binding; OSH2 has a paralog, SWH1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
PomBase Descriptionsterol binding ankyrin repeat protein (predicted)
AspGD DescriptionOrtholog(s) have cytosol localization
