Function | [Sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2]: Precursor of the transcription factor form (Processed sterol regulatory element- binding protein 2), which is embedded in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane (PubMed:32322062). Low sterol concentrations promote processing of this form, releasing the transcription factor form that translocates into the nucleus and activates transcription of genes involved in cholesterol biosynthesis (PubMed:32322062). |
Cellular Location | [Sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2]: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi- pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle, COPII-coated vesicle membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=At high sterol concentrations, the SCAP- SREBP is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (PubMed:32322062). Low sterol concentrations promote recruitment into COPII-coated vesicles and transport of the SCAP-SREBP to the Golgi, where it is processed (PubMed:32322062). |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitously expressed in adult and fetal tissues. |

Background
Transcriptional activator required for lipid homeostasis. Regulates transcription of the LDL receptor gene as well as the cholesterol and to a lesser degree the fatty acid synthesis pathway (By similarity). Binds the sterol regulatory element 1 (SRE-1) (5'-ATCACCCCAC-3') found in the flanking region of the LDRL and HMG-CoA synthase genes.
