STARD10
StAR related lipid transfer domain containing 10
Pathway candidate — not linked to PFS or PSSD by any record here
Gene summary
A protein-coding gene on chromosome 11 (steroid hormone synthesis). Predicted to enable lipid carrier activity and phosphatidylcholine binding activity. Predicted to be involved in phosphatidylcholine biosynthetic process.

Protein reference (UniProt)
- Protein
START domain-containing protein 10
- Function
May play metabolic roles in sperm maturation or fertilization (By similarity). Phospholipid transfer protein that preferentially selects lipid species containing a palmitoyl or stearoyl chain on the sn-1 and an unsaturated fatty acyl chain (18:1 or 18:2) on the sn-2 position. Able to transfer phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidyetanolamline (PE) between membranes.
- Subcellular location
Cell projection, cilium, flagellum; Cytoplasm; Membrane.

Why its pathway is in the library
Steroid-synthesis enzymes sit directly on the pathways perturbed by 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors and SSRIs; inherited variation here is a candidate susceptibility factor for persistent post-drug phenotypes.
Written for the whole steroid synthesis family, not for STARD10 specifically.
Mentioned in 0 corpus records
No corpus record names STARD10 directly yet. It is in the library because it sits in a pathway the corpus tracks (Steroid synthesis).
