Multivesicular body formation requires OSBP-related proteins and cholesterol.

Multivesicular body formation requires OSBP-related proteins and cholesterol.

In eukaryotes, different subcellular organelles have distinct cholesterol concentrations, which is thought to be critical for biological functions. Oxysterol-binding protein-related proteins (ORPs) have been assumed to mediate nonvesicular cholesterol trafficking in cells; however, their in vivo fun...
