S.cerevisiae - Yeastract

Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Ysp2p
Description	Sterol-binding protein; has a probable role in retrograde transport of sterols from the plasma membrane to the ER; contains two StART-like domains that bind sterols and a GRAM domain; co-localizes to puncta in the cortical ER with Sip3p; one of six StART-like domain-containing proteins in yeast that may be involved in sterol transfer between intracellular membranes; conserved across eukaryotes
GO Terms: Biological Process	level 5: apoptotic process level 6: intermembrane lipid transfer level 6: sterol transport level 6: intracellular sterol transport
GO Terms: Molecular Function	level 5: sterol transfer activity level 5: sterol binding
