Osbpl8 - oxysterol binding protein-like 8 Gene

Predicted to enable several functions, including Cholesterol binding activity; phosphatidylserine transfer activity; and phospholipid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including activation of protein kinase B activity; negative regulation of sequestering of triglyceride; and positive regulation of glucose import. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of cell migration; positive regulation of signal transduction; and protein localization to nuclear pore. Predicted to be located in cortical endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear membrane. Predicted to be active in cytosol; intracellular membrane-bounded organelle; and membrane. Orthologous to human OSBPL8 (oxysterol binding protein like 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
