Systematic name YOR011W
Gene name AUS1
Aliases
Feature type ORF, Verified
Coordinates Chr XV:349679..353863
Primary SGDID S000005537


Description of YOR011W: Plasma membrane sterol transporter of the ATP-binding cassette family; required, along with Pdr11p, for uptake of exogenous sterols and their incorporation into the plasma membrane; activity is stimulated by phosphatidylserine; sterol uptake is required for anaerobic growth because sterol biosynthesis requires oxygen[1][2][3][4]
