Gene: OSBP2
Alternate names for this Gene: HLM|ORP-4|ORP4|OSBPL1|OSBPL4
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene contains a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain and an oxysterol-binding region. It binds oxysterols such as 7-ketocholesterol and may inhibit their cytotoxicity. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 22
Location in Chromosome : 22q12.2
Description of this Gene: oxysterol binding protein 2
Type of Gene: protein-coding
