    Also known as
    ORP3A; OSBP(OXYSTEROL BINDING PROTEIN)-RELATED PROTEIN 3A; T7H20.150; T7H20_150; UNFERTILIZED EMBRYO SAC 18
    Summary
    Encodes a protein that binds to beta-sitosterol and localizes to the ER. The WFDE motif in ORP3a appears to be important for a direct interaction with PVA12 [Plant VAMP-Associated protein 12]. Mutation of this motif causes ORP3a to relocalize to the Golgi and cytosol. The interaction between PVA12 and ORP3a does not appear to be sterol-dependent.

    What's a GeneRIF?
    1. ORP3a binds sitosterol, and binds PVA12 on the endoplasmic reticulum. Disruption of the ORP3a-PVA12 interaction leads to a redistribution of ORP3a to the Golgi apparatus.
