== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CSR1_YEAST CSR1_YEAST] Non-classical phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) transfer protein (PITP), which exhibits PtdIns-binding/transfer activity in the absence of detectable PtdCho-binding/transfer activity. Activates SPO14/PLD1 (phospholipase D1) by stimulating phosphoinositide synthesis via the STT4 PtdIns 4-kinase. Modulates ArfGAP function through effects on SPO14 activity. Inhibits phosphatidylcholine degradation by PLB1 (phospholipase B1). May also regulate post-Golgi membrane-trafficking events and have a role resistance to oxidative stress. Inhibits fatty acid synthase activity in response to heme depletion and oleic acid starvation, preventing saturated fatty acid (SFA) accumulation (PubMed:17803462).<ref>PMID:10679005</ref> <ref>PMID:10848624</ref> <ref>PMID:12435498</ref> <ref>PMID:12824182</ref> <ref>PMID:12869188</ref> <ref>PMID:16126894</ref> <ref>PMID:16262726</ref> <ref>PMID:17803462</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Sec14-like phosphatidylinositol transfer proteins (PITPs) are involved in lipid metabolism and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate signaling by transporting phosphatidylinositol (PI) and a secondary ligand between the organellar membranes in eukaryotes. Yeast Sfh2 is a PITP that transfers PI and squalene without phosphatidylcholine transfer activity. To investigate the structural determinants for ligand specificity and transport in Sfh2, crystal structures of Sfh2 in complex with PI and squalene were determined at 1.5 and 2.4 A resolution, respectively. The inositol head group of PI is recognized by highly conserved residues around the pocket entrance. The acyl chains of PI bind into a large hydrophobic cavity. Squalene is accommodated in the bottom of the cavity entirely by hydrophobic interactions. The binding of PI and squalene are mutually exclusive due to their overlapping binding sites, correlating with the role in lipid exchange. The binding mode of PI is well conserved in Sfh family proteins. However, squalene binding is unique to the Sfh2 homolog due to the specific hydrophobic residues forming a shape-complementary binding pocket. Recombinant apo Sfh2 forms a homodimer in vitro by the hydrophobic interaction of the gating alpha10-alpha11 helices in an open conformation. Ligand binding closes the lid and dissociates the dimer into monomers. This study reveals the structural determinants for the recognition of the conserved PI and a secondary ligand, squalene, and provides implications for the lipid-transfer function of Sfh2.
