Abstract excerpt
OSH1 belongs to a seven-member gene family in yeast that is related to mammalian oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP). Here, we investigate the targeting of Osh1p to nucleus-vacuole (NV) junctions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. NV junctions are interorganelle interfaces mediated by Nvj1p in the nuclear envelope and Vac8p on the vacuole membrane. Together, Nvj1p and Vac8p form Velcro-like patches through which...
