Steroidogenic Activity of StAR Requires Contact with Mitochondrial VDAC1 and Phosphate Carrier Protein

The steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR) is required for adrenal and gonadal steroidogenesis and for male sexual differentiation. StAR acts on the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) to facilitate movement of cholesterol from the OMM to the inner mitochondrial membrane to be converted to pre...
