Basic information

Full name
StAR related lipid transfer domain containing 4
Ensembl
ENSG00000164211.13
Summary
Cholesterol homeostasis is regulated, at least in part, by sterol regulatory element (SRE)-binding proteins (e.g., SREBP1; MIM 184756) and by liver X receptors (e.g., LXRA; MIM 602423). Upon sterol depletion, LXRs are inactive and SREBPs are cleaved, after which they bind promoter SREs and activate genes involved in cholesterol biosynthesis and uptake. Sterol transport is mediated by vesicles or by soluble protein carriers, such as steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (STAR; MIM 600617). STAR is homologous to a family of proteins containing a 200- to 210-amino acid STAR-related lipid transfer (START) domain, including STARD4 (Soccio et al., 2002 [PubMed 12011452]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Associations of the protein abundance of STARD4 with phenotypes and mutations

Signed p-values
Phenotype Meta P BRCA CCRCC COAD GBM HNSCC LSCC LUAD OV PDAC UCEC

* P-values could be from test for Spearman correlation, Wilcoxon rank sum test, Jonckheere-Terpstra trend test or Cox regression depending on the data type. P-values for individual cohorts can be clicked to show the data plots. The matrix icons in each row can be clicked to show a heatmap summary of associations across all cohorts and omics. The rows in the table can be expanded to show results from other omics.

Cis-association

Associations between omics data of STARD4

* The numbers are Spearman correlation coefficients and can be clicked to show the scatter plots. The color and size of the circles correlate with the coefficients.

Trans-association

Associations of the protein abundance of STARD4 and the protein abundance of other genes

Signed p-values
Gene Meta P BRCA CCRCC COAD GBM HNSCC LSCC LUAD OV PDAC UCEC

* P-values are from test for Spearman correlation. P-values for individual cohorts can be clicked to show the data plots. The matrix icons in each row can be clicked to show a heatmap summary of associations across all cohorts and omics. The rows in the table can be expanded to show results from other omics.
