Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionobr-3 encodes two isoforms of a protein with an N-terminal pleckstrin domain and a C-terminal oxysterol-binding domain; OBR-3 has orthologs in Drosophila (CG5077) and humans (OSBPL8; OMIM:606736); OBR-3 binds the BMP receptor-associated molecule (BRAM) proteins BRA-1 and BRA-2; obr-3 is expressed in pharyngeal muscle, hypodermis, and several neurons; obr-3 is required for normally large body size, and the small body phenotype of obr-3(RNAi) animals is consistent with OBR-3 participating in TGF-beta signalling.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004823

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable cholesterol binding activity and sterol transporter activity. Involved in regulation of growth and transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cytosol; intracellular membrane-bounded organelle; and membrane. Expressed in hypodermis; neurons; and pharyngeal muscle cell. Is an ortholog of human OSBPL5 (oxysterol binding protein like 5) and OSBPL8 (oxysterol binding protein like 8).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
