S.cerevisiae - Yeastract

Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Sip3p
Description	Putative sterol transfer protein; has a probable role in retrograde transport of sterols from the plasma membrane to the ER; co-localizes to puncta in the cortical ER with Ysp2p; contains GRAM, StART-like (VASt) and two PH-like domains; one of 6 StART-like domain-containing proteins in yeast that may be involved in sterol transfer between intracellular membranes; conserved across eukaryotes; previously identified as a transcription cofactor that interacts with DNA-bound Snf1p
GO Terms: Biological Process	level 6: intracellular sterol transport level 7: DNA-templated transcription elongation level 9: positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II
GO Terms: Molecular Function	level 3: transcription coregulator activity
GO Terms: Cellular Component	level 3: membrane level 3: cytoplasm level 4: integral component of membrane level 4: endoplasmic reticulum level 4: plasma membrane level 5: cortical endoplasmic reticulum level 5: endoplasmic reticulum membrane
