Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Hes1p
Description	Protein implicated in the regulation of ergosterol biosynthesis; one of a seven member gene family with a common essential function and non-essential unique functions; similar to human oxysterol binding protein (OSBP); SWAT-GFP and mCherry fusion proteins localize to the bud neck and vacuolar membrane; HES1 has a paralog, KES1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
GO Terms: Biological Process	level 4: lipid metabolic process level 4: maintenance of cell polarity level 5: exocytosis level 5: steroid metabolic process level 6: sterol biosynthetic process level 6: steroid biosynthetic process level 6: piecemeal microautophagy of the nucleus level 6: endocytosis level 6: intermembrane lipid transfer level 6: sterol transport
GO Terms: Molecular Function	level 3: lipid binding level 4: sterol transporter activity level 5: sterol binding level 5: sterol transfer activity level 6: oxysterol binding
GO Terms: Cellular Component	level 3: cytosol level 3: membrane level 4: cellular bud neck level 4: intracellular membrane-bounded organelle level 4: vacuole level 5: vacuolar membrane level 7: fungal-type vacuole membrane
