Sterol-binding protein that localizes to puncta in the cortical ER; sterol binding occurs via two StART-like domains; one of six StART-like domain-containing proteins in yeast that may be involved in intracellular sterol transfer between membranes; conserved across eukaryotes; has both GRAM and StART-like (VASt) domains; the authentic, non-tagged protein is detected in highly purified mitochondria in high-throughput studies
