StarD5: an ER stress protein regulates plasma membrane and intracellular cholesterol homeostasis

StarD5: an ER stress protein regulates plasma membrane and intracellular cholesterol homeostasis

How plasma membrane (PM) cholesterol is controlled is poorly understood. Ablation of the gene encoding the ER stress steroidogenic acute regulatory-related lipid transfer domain (StarD)5 leads to a decrease in PM cholesterol content, a decrease in cholesterol efflux, and an increase in intracellular...
