Abstract
Insulin is packaged into secretory granules that depart the Golgi and undergo a maturation process that involves changes in the protein and lipid composition of the granules. Here, we show that insulin secretory granules form physical contacts with the endoplasmic reticulum and that the lipid exchange protein oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) is recruited to these sites in a Ca2+-dependent manner. OSBP binding to insulin granules is positively regulated by phosphatidylinositol-4 (PI4)-kinases and negatively regulated by the PI4 phosphate (PI(4)P) phosphatase Sac2. Loss of Sac2 results in excess accumulation of cholesterol on insulin granules that is normalized when OSBP expression is reduced, and both acute inhibition and small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated knockdown of OSBP suppress glucose-stimulated insulin secretion without affecting insulin production or intracellular Ca2+ signaling. In conclusion, we show that lipid exchange at endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-granule contact sites is involved in the exocytic process and propose that these contacts act as reaction centers with multimodal functions during insulin granule maturation.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) mediates lipid exchange between organelles at membrane contact sites, thereby regulating lipid dynamics and homeostasis. How OSBP's lipid transfer function impacts health and disease remain to be elucidated. In this review, we first summarize the structural characteristics and lipid transport functions of OSBP, and then focus on recent progresses linking OSBP with fatty liver disease, diabetes, lysosome-related diseases, cancer and viral infections, with the aim of discovering novel therapeutic strategies for common human diseases.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) is a host factor required for enterovirus (EV) replication. OSBP locates at membrane contact site and acts as a lipid exchanger of cholesterol and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) between cellular organelles; however, the essential domains required for the viral replication remain unknown. In this study, we define essential domains of OSBP for poliovirus (PV) replication by a functional dominance assay with a series of deletion variants of OSBP. We show that the pleckstrin homology domain (PHD) and the ligand-binding domain, but not the N-terminal intrinsically disordered domain, coiled-coil region, or the FFAT motif, are essential for PV replication. The PHD serves as the primary determinant of OSBP targeting to the replication organelle in the infected cells. These results suggest that not all the domains that support important biological functions of OSBP are essential for the viral replication.

Abstract
To promote infections, pathogens exploit host cell machineries such as structural elements of the plasma membrane. Studying these interactions and identifying molecular players are ideal for gaining insights into the fundamental biology of the host cell. Here, we used the anthrax toxin to screen a library of 1,500 regulatory, cell-surface, and membrane trafficking genes for their involvement in the intoxication process. We found that endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi-localized proteins TMED2 and TMED10 are required for toxin oligomerization at the plasma membrane of human cells, an essential step dependent on localization to cholesterol-rich lipid nanodomains. Biochemical, morphological, and mechanistic analyses showed that TMED2 and TMED10 are essential components of a supercomplex that operates the exchange of both cholesterol and ceramides at ER-Golgi membrane contact sites. Overall, this study of anthrax intoxication led to the discovery that lipid compositional remodeling at ER-Golgi interfaces fully controls the formation of functional membrane nanodomains at the cell surface.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) is a cholesterol/PI4P exchanger at contacts of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) with trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes. Several central endothelial cell (EC) functions depend on adequate cholesterol distribution in cellular membranes. Here we elucidated the effects of pharmacologic OSBP inhibition on the lipidome and transcriptome of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). OSBP was inhibited for 24 h with 25 nM Schweinfurthin G (SWG) or Orsaponin (OSW-1), followed by analyses of cellular cholesterol, 27-hydroxy-cholesterol, and triacylglycerol concentration, phosphatidylserine synthesis rate, the lipidome, as well as lipid droplet staining and western analysis of OSBP protein. Next-generation RNA sequencing of the SWG-treated and control HUVECs and angiogenesis assays were performed. Protein-normalized lipidomes of the inhibitor-treated cells revealed decreases in glycerophospholipids, the most pronounced effect being on phosphatidylserines and the rate of their synthesis, as well as increases in cholesteryl esters, triacylglycerols and lipid droplet number. Transcriptome analysis of SWG-treated cells suggested ER stress responses apparently caused by disturbed cholesterol exit from the ER, as indicated by suppression of cholesterol biosynthetic genes. OSBP was associated with the TGN in the absence of inhibitors and disappeared therefrom in inhibitor-treated cells in a time-dependent manner, coinciding with OSBP reduction on western blots. Prolonged treatment with SWG or OSW-1 inhibited angiogenesis in vitro. To conclude, inhibition of OSBP in primary endothelial cells induced multiple effects on the lipidome, transcriptome changes suggesting ER stress, and disruption of in vitro angiogenic capacity. Thus, OSBP is a crucial regulator of EC lipid homeostasis and angiogenic capacity.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP), which transports cholesterol and phosphatidylinositol 4-monophosphate (PtdIns[4]P) between different organelles, serves as a conserved host factor for the replication of various viruses, and OSBP inhibitors exhibit antiviral effects. Here, we determined the crystal structure of the lipid transfer domain of human OSBP in complex with endogenous cholesterol. The hydrocarbon tail and tetracyclic ring of cholesterol interact with the hydrophobic tunnel of OSBP, and the hydroxyl group of cholesterol forms a hydrogen bond network at the bottom of the tunnel. Systematic mutagenesis of the ligand-binding region revealed that M446W and L590W substitutions confer functional tolerance to an OSBP inhibitor, T-00127-HEV2. Employing the M446W variant as a functional replacement for the endogenous OSBP in the presence of T-00127-HEV2, we have identified previously unappreciated amino acid residues required for viral replication. The combined use of the inhibitor and the OSBP variant will be useful in elucidating the enigmatic in vivo functions of OSBP.

Abstract
Membrane contact sites are specialized areas where the membranes of two distinct organelles are physically connected and allow for the exchange of molecules and for signaling processes. Understanding the mechanisms whereby proteins localize to and function in these structures is of special interest; however, methods allowing for reconstitution of these contact sites are few and only based on synthetic membranes and recombinant proteins. Here, we devised a strategy to create in situ artificial contact sites between synthetic and endogenous organelle membranes. Liposomes functionalized with a peptide containing a two phenylalanines in an acidic tract (FFAT) motif were added to adherent cells whose plasma membrane was perforated. Confocal and super-resolution microscopy revealed that these liposomes associated with the endoplasmic reticulum via the specific interaction of the FFAT motif with endoplasmic reticulum–resident vesicle-associated membrane protein–associated proteins. This approach allowed for quantification of the attachment properties of peptides corresponding to FFAT motifs derived from distinct proteins and of a protein construct derived from steroidogenic acute regulatory protein–related lipid transfer domain-3. Collectively, these data indicate that the creation of in situ artificial contact sites represents an efficient approach for studying the membrane-tethering activity of proteins and for designing membrane contact site reconstitution assays in cellular contexts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxathiapiprolin is a piperidinyl thiazole isoxazoline fungicide discovered by DuPont and commercialized by Corteva Agriscience. It acts by inhibiting a novel fungal target, an oxysterol binding protein (OSBP), and is intrinsically highly active against oomycetes including grape downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola) and potato late blight (Phytophthora infestans). Because the fungicide acts at a single site there is a need to determine the risk of resistance development. RESULTS Oxathiapiprolin controlled European Plasmopara viticola and Phytophthora infestans isolates at very low concentrations with half maximal effective concentration (EC50 ) values ranging from 0.001 to 0.0264 mg L-1 and 0.001 to 0.03 mg L-1 , respectively. Laboratory mutagenesis studies performed with Phytophthora capsici using ultraviolet (UV) irradiation generated mutants with reduced sensitivity to oxathiapiprolin. All resistant mutants had a base pair change in the OSBP gene that resulted in an amino acid change. Most common substitutions were S768Y, G770V, G839W and L863W. Isolates of Plasmopara viticola and Phytophthora infestans with reduced sensitivity were also detected in field trial sites where oxathiapiprolin had been applied repeatedly each season over several consecutive years. CONCLUSIONS The risk of oxathiapiprolin resistance development in Plasmopara viticola and Phytophthora infestans is medium to high and strict resistance management measures are required. Over-exposure of target populations to single-site fungicides during product development should be avoided.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides are a family of signaling lipids that play a profound role in regulating protein function at the membrane-cytosol interface of all cellular membranes. Underscoring their importance, mutations or alterations in phosphoinositide metabolizing enzymes lead to host of developmental, neurodegenerative, and metabolic disorders that are devastating for human health. In addition to lipid enzymes, phosphoinositide metabolism is regulated and controlled at membrane contact sites (MCS). Regions of close opposition typically between the ER and other cellular membranes, MCS are non-vesicular lipid transport portals that engage in extensive communication to influence organelle homeostasis. This review focuses on lipid transport, specifically phosphoinositide lipid transport and metabolism at MCS.

Abstract
Endosomes are a heterogeneous population of intracellular organelles responsible for sorting, recycling, or transporting internalized materials for degradation. Endosomal sorting and maturation are controlled by a complex interplay of regulators, with RAB GTPases and phosphoinositides playing key roles. In this decade, another layer of regulation surfaced with the role played by membrane contact sites between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and endosomes. Specific regulators of ER-endosome contact sites or proteins localized at these sites are emerging as modulators of this complex endosomal ballet. In particular, lipid transfer or recruitment of various complexes and enzymes at ER-endosome contact sites play an active role in endosome sorting, scission, and maturation. In this short review, we focus on studies describing ER-endosome contact sites in these three endosomal processes.

Abstract
The phosphatidylinositol-4 kinase IIIβ (PI4KB)/oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) family I pathway serves as an essential host pathway for the formation of viral replication complex for viral plus-strand RNA synthesis; however, poliovirus (PV) could evolve toward substantial independence from this host pathway with four mutations. Recessive epistasis of the two mutations (3A-R54W and 2B-F17L) is essential for viral RNA replication. Quantitative analysis of effects of the other two mutations (2B-Q20H and 2C-M187V) on each step of infection reveals functional couplings between viral replication, growth, and spread conferred by the 2B-Q20H mutation, while no enhancing effect was conferred by the 2C-M187V mutation. The effects of the 2B-Q20H mutation occur only via another recessive epistasis between the 3A-R54W/2B-F17L mutations. These mutations confer enhanced replication in PI4KB/OSBP-independent infection concomitantly with an increased ratio of viral plus-strand RNA to the minus-strand RNA. This work reveals the essential roles of the functional coupling and high-order, multi-tiered recessive epistasis in viral evolution toward independence from an obligatory host pathway. IMPORTANCE Each virus has a different strategy for its replication, which requires different host factors. Enterovirus, a model RNA virus, requires host factors PI4KB and OSBP, which form an obligatory functional axis to support viral replication. In an experimental evolution system in vitro, virus mutants that do not depend on these host factors could arise only with four mutations. The two mutations (3A-R54W and 2B-F17L) are required for the replication but are not sufficient to support efficient infection. Another mutation (2B-Q20H) is essential for efficient spread of the virus. The order of introduction of the mutations in the viral genome is essential (known as “epistasis”), and functional couplings of infection steps (i.e., viral replication, growth, and spread) have substantial roles to show the effects of the 2B-Q20H mutation. These observations would provide novel insights into an evolutionary pathway of the virus to require host factors for infection.

Abstract
Membrane contact sites (MCS) are regions of close apposition between membrane-bound organelles. Proteins that occupy MCS display various domain organisation. Among them, lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) frequently contain both structured domains as well as regions of intrinsic disorder. In this review, we discuss the various roles of intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDPRs) in LTPs as well as in other proteins that are associated with organelle contact sites. We distinguish the following functions: (i) to act as flexible tethers between two membranes; (ii) to act as entropic barriers to prevent protein crowding and regulate membrane tethering geometry; (iii) to define the action range of catalytic domains. These functions are added to other functions of IDPRs in membrane environments, such as mediating protein-protein and protein-membrane interactions. We suggest that the overall efficiency and fidelity of contact sites might require fine coordination between all these IDPR activities.

Abstract
Viruses are obligate parasites that depend on the host cell machinery for their replication and dissemination. Cellular lipids play a central role in multiple stages of the viral life cycle such as entry, replication, morphogenesis, and egress. Most viruses reorganize the host cell membranes for the establishment of viral replication complex. These specialized structures allow the segregation of replicating viral RNA from ribosomes and protect it from host nucleases. They also facilitate localized enrichment of cellular components required for viral replication and assembly. The specific composition of the lipid membrane governs its ability to form negative or positive curvature and possess a rigid or flexible form, which is crucial for membrane rearrangement and establishment of viral replication complexes. In this review, we highlight how different viruses manipulate host lipid transfer proteins and harness their functions to enrich different membrane compartments with specific lipids in order to facilitate multiple aspects of the viral life cycle.

Abstract
Background Liposarcoma was considered as a soft tissue kind of sarcoma with one-fifth in the sarcoma cases of adults. The aim of this study was to explore the role and the potential mechanisms of miR-195 in liposarcoma. Methods Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was conducted to measure the expression of microRNA-195 (miR-195) and oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) in liposarcoma. Cell proliferation was assessed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT). Cell migration was measured by wound healing and transwell assays. Cell cycle phases and apoptosis were examined using flow cytometry analysis. Caspase-3 activity was detected by commercial kit. Binding sites between miR-195 and OSBP were predicted through bioinformatics analysis and confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP). Western blot was used to analyze OSBP level. Xenograft tumor assays were performed to observe the effect of miR-195 overexpression on tumor growth in vivo. Results miR-195 expression was decreased, whereas OSBP was increased in liposarcoma tissues and cells. Besides, miR-195 upregulation suppressed the proliferative and migrative abilities and induced inhibition on cell growth and promotion on apoptosis in SW872 and 93T449 cells. Mechanically, miR-195 functioned as a suppressor by regulating OSBP expression. Furthermore, OSBP overexpression inverted the effects of miR-195 on cell growth, migration and apoptosis in SW872 and 93T449 cells. miR-195 overexpression also suppressed tumor growth in vivo. Conclusion miR-195 suppressed cell growth, migration and elevated cell apoptosis via OSBP in liposarcoma.

Abstract
Intracellular Salmonella use a type III secretion system (TTSS) to translocate effector proteins across the phagosome membrane and thus promote vacuole membrane tubulation, resulting in intracellular survival. This work demonstrates that the effector SseJ binds the eukaryotic lipid transporter oxysterol binding protein 1 (OSBP1). SseJ directs OSBP1 to the endosomal compartment in a manner dependent on the TTSS located on Salmonella pathogenicity island 2 (SPI2). OSBP1 localization is mediated by both SseJ and another OSBP1-binding SPI2 translocated effector, the deubiquitinase SseL. Deletion of both SseJ and SseL reduced vacuolar integrity with increased bacteria released into the eukaryotic cytoplasm of epithelial cells, indicating that their combined activities are necessary for vacuole membrane stability. Cells knocked down for OSBP1 or deleted for the OSBP1-binding proteins VAPA/B also demonstrate loss of vacuole integrity, consistent with the hypothesis that OSBP1 recruitment is required for SPI2-mediated alterations that promote vacuolar integrity of salmonellae.

Abstract
ORPphilins are bioactive natural products that strongly and selectively inhibit the growth of some cancer cell lines and are proposed to target intracellular lipid-transfer proteins of the oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) family. These conserved proteins exchange key lipids, such as cholesterol and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI(4)P), between organelle membranes. Among ORPphilins, molecules of the schweinfurthin family interfere with intracellular lipid distribution and metabolism, but their functioning at the molecular level is poorly understood. We report here that cell line sensitivity to schweinfurthin G (SWG) is inversely proportional to cellular OSBP levels. By taking advantage of the intrinsic fluorescence of SWG, we followed its fate in cell cultures and show that its incorporation at the trans-Golgi network depends on cellular abundance of OSBP. Using in vitro membrane reconstitution systems and cellular imaging approaches, we also report that SWG inhibits specifically the lipid transfer activity of OSBP. As a consequence, post-Golgi trafficking, membrane cholesterol levels, and PI(4)P turnover were affected. Finally, using intermolecular FRET analysis, we demonstrate that SWG directly binds to the lipid-binding cavity of OSBP. Collectively these results describe SWG as a specific and intrinsically fluorescent pharmacological tool for dissecting OSBP properties at the cellular and molecular levels. Our findings indicate that SWG binds OSBP with nanomolar affinity, that this binding is sensitive to the membrane environment, and that SWG inhibits the OSBP-catalyzed lipid exchange cycle.

Abstract
The inter-organelle transport of lipids must be regulated to ensure appropriate lipid composition of each organelle. In mammalian cells, ceramide synthesised in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is transported to the trans-Golgi regions, where ceramide is converted to sphingomyelin (SM) with the concomitant production of diacylglycerol. Ceramide transport protein (CERT) transports ceramide from the ER to the trans-Golgi regions at the ER-Golgi membrane contact sites (MCS). The function of CERT is down-regulated by multisite phosphorylation of a serine-repeat motif (SRM) and up-regulated by phosphorylation of serine 315 in CERT. Multisite phosphorylation of the SRM is primed by protein kinase D, which is activated by diacylglycerol. The function of CERT is regulated by a phosphorylation-dependent feedback mechanism in response to cellular requirements of SM. CERT-dependent ceramide transport is also affected by the pool of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns)-4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P) in the trans-Golgi regions, while the PtdIns(4)P pool is regulated by PtdIns-4-kinases and oxysterol-binding protein. The ER-Golgi MCS may serve as inter-organelle communication zones, in which many factors work in concert to serve as an extensive rheostat of SM, diacylglycerol, cholesterol and PtdIns(4)P.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-4 kinase III β (PI4KB) and oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) family I provide a conserved host pathway required for enterovirus replication. Here, we analyze the role and essentiality of this pathway in enterovirus replication. Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) production and cholesterol accumulation in the replication organelle (RO) are severely suppressed in cells infected with a poliovirus (PV) mutant isolated from a PI4KB-knockout cell line (RD[Δ PI4KB]). Major determinants of the mutant for infectivity in RD(Δ PI4KB) cells map to the A5270U(3A-R54W) and U3881C(2B-F17L) mutations. The 3A mutation is required for PI4KB-independent development of RO. The 2B mutation rather sensitizes PV to PI4KB/OSBP inhibitors by itself but confers substantially complete resistance to the inhibitors with the 3A mutation. The 2B mutation also confers hypersensitivity to interferon alpha treatment on PV. These suggest that the PI4KB/OSBP pathway is not necessarily essential for enterovirus replication in vitro. This work supports a two-step resistance model of enterovirus to PI4KB/OSBP inhibitors involving unique recessive epistasis of 3A and 2B and offers insights into a potential evolutionary pathway of enterovirus toward independence from the PI4KB/OSBP pathway.

Abstract
Besides the well-known hepatobiliary pathway of cholesterol excretion into the feces, transintestinal cholesterol excretion (TICE) is a second major pathway through which cholesterol is disposed from the body. In the process of TICE, cholesterol is taken up from lipoprotein particles at the basolateral side of the enterocyte and translocates towards the apical side of the enterocyte. At the apical side, the ATP-binding cassette transporters G5 and G8 form a heterodimer that transports cholesterol into the intestinal lumen. A substantial amount of the secreted cholesterol is likely reabsorbed by the cholesterol influx transporter Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1) since recent data indicate that inhibition of NPC1L1 increases the efficacy of TICE for disposal of cholesterol via the feces. The pathways and proteins involved in intracellular cholesterol trafficking in the enterocyte have not yet been identified. Therefore, in addition to discussing known mediators of TICE, this review will also examine potential candidates involved in cholesterol translocation in the enterocyte. Both the cholesterol reuptake and efflux pathways can be influenced by pharmaceutical means; thus, the TICE pathway is a very attractive target to increase cholesterol excretion from the body and prevent or mitigate atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
African swine fever (ASF) is a hemorrhagic fever of wild and domestic pigs with a high rate of mortality. Originally endemic in Africa, this disease is currently disseminating in Europe and China, causing a large socioeconomic impact. ASF is caused by a DNA virus, African swine fever virus (ASFV). There is no vaccine available against ASFV, limiting the options for disease control. ASFV reorganizes intracellular membranes to generate viral factories (VFs) in order to amplify its genome. However, little is known about the process involved in the formation of these viral replication organelles. Membrane contact sites (MCSs) allow nonvesicular lipids and ion exchange between organelles. Lipid exchange to form VFs apparently requires a number of proteins at MCSs, such as the oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP), the acyl-coenzyme A binding domain containing 3 (ACBD3) and the phosphatidylinositol-phosphate-4-kinase III beta (PI4Kβ). Itraconazole (ITZ) is an antifungal agent that targets sterol-transport molecules such as OSBP and OSBP-related protein 4 (ORP4). 25-Hydroxycholesterol (25-HC) inhibits lipid transport by high affinity binding OSBP. In this work, we analyzed the antiviral function of ITZ and 25-HC against ASFV in Vero cell cultures using the cell-adapted Ba71V isolate. ITZ and 25-HC decreased significantly ASFV replication. Our study revealed OSBP distribution in cytoplasmic membranes in uninfected Vero cells and to the periphery of VFs in infected cells. In addition, we showed that OSBP and OSBP-related proteins, PI4Kβ and ACBD3 were recruited to VFs in the context ASFV infection.

Abstract
Positive-strand RNA viruses, including picornaviruses, utilize cellular machinery for genome replication. Previously, we reported that each of the 2B, 2BC, 2C, 3A, and 3AB proteins of Aichi virus (AiV), a picornavirus, forms a complex with the Golgi apparatus protein ACBD3 and phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIIβ (PI4KB) at viral RNA replication sites (replication organelles [ROs]), enhancing PI4KB-dependent phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) production. Here, we demonstrate AiV hijacking of the cellular cholesterol transport system involving oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP), a PI4P-binding cholesterol transfer protein. AiV RNA replication was inhibited by silencing cellular proteins known to be components of this pathway, OSBP, the ER membrane proteins VAPA and VAPB (VAP-A/B), the PI4P-phosphatase SAC1, and PI-transfer protein β. OSBP, VAP-A/B, and SAC1 were present at RNA replication sites. We also found various previously unknown interactions among the AiV proteins (2B, 2BC, 2C, 3A, and 3AB), ACBD3, OSBP, VAP-A/B, and SAC1, and the interactions were suggested to be involved in recruiting the component proteins to AiV ROs. Importantly, the OSBP-2B interaction enabled PI4P-independent recruitment of OSBP to AiV ROs, indicating preferential recruitment of OSBP among PI4P-binding proteins. Protein-protein interaction-based OSBP recruitment has not been reported for other picornaviruses. Cholesterol was accumulated at AiV ROs, and inhibition of OSBP-mediated cholesterol transfer impaired cholesterol accumulation and AiV RNA replication. Electron microscopy showed that AiV-induced vesicle-like structures were close to ER membranes. Altogether, we conclude that AiV directly recruits the cholesterol transport machinery through protein-protein interactions, resulting in formation of membrane contact sites between the ER and AiV ROs and cholesterol supply to the ROs.IMPORTANCE Positive-strand RNA viruses utilize host pathways to modulate the lipid composition of viral RNA replication sites for replication. Previously, we demonstrated that Aichi virus (AiV), a picornavirus, forms a complex comprising certain proteins of AiV, the Golgi apparatus protein ACBD3, and the lipid kinase PI4KB to synthesize PI4P lipid at the sites for AiV RNA replication. Here, we confirmed cholesterol accumulation at the AiV RNA replication sites, which are established by hijacking the host cholesterol transfer machinery mediated by a PI4P-binding cholesterol transfer protein, OSBP. We showed that the component proteins of the machinery, OSBP, VAP, SAC1, and PITPNB, are all essential host factors for AiV replication. Importantly, the machinery is directly recruited to the RNA replication sites through previously unknown interactions of VAP/OSBP/SAC1 with the AiV proteins and with ACBD3. Consequently, we propose a specific strategy employed by AiV to efficiently accumulate cholesterol at the RNA replication sites via protein-protein interactions.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) and OSBP-related proteins (ORPs) constitute a large family of proteins that mainly function in lipid transport and sensing. ORP5 is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-anchored protein implicated in lipid transfer at the contact sites between the ER and other membranes. Recent studies indicate that ORP5 is also involved in cancer cell invasion and tumor progression. However, the molecular mechanism underlying ORP5's involvement in cancer is unclear. Here, we report that ORP5 promotes cell proliferation and motility of HeLa cells, an effect that depends on its functional OSBP-related domain (ORD). We also found that ORP5 depletion or substitutions of key residues located within ORP5-ORD and responsible for interactions with lipids interfered with cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. ORP5 interacted with the protein mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR), and this interaction also required ORP5-ORD. Of note, whereas ORP5 overexpression induced mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) activity, ORP5 down-regulation had the opposite effect. Finally, ORP5-depleted cells exhibited impaired mTOR localization to lysosomes, which may have accounted for the blunted mTORC1 activation. Together, our results suggest that ORP5 expression is positively correlated with mTORC1 signaling and that ORP5 stimulates cell proliferation, at least in part, by activating mTORC1.

Abstract
Enteroviruses (e.g. poliovirus, coxsackievirus, and rhinovirus) require several host factors for genome replication. Among these host factors are phosphatidylinositol-4-kinase IIIβ (PI4KB) and oxysterol binding protein (OSBP). Enterovirus mutants resistant to inhibitors of PI4KB and OSBP were previously isolated, which demonstrated a role of single substitutions in the non-structural 3A protein in conferring resistance. Besides the 3A substitutions (i.e., 3A-I54F and 3A-H57Y) in coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3), substitution N2D in 2C was identified in each of the PI4KB-inhibitor resistant CVB3 pools, but its possible benefit has not been investigated yet. In this study, we set out to investigate the possible role of 2C-N2D in the resistance to PI4KB and OSBP inhibition. We show that 2C-N2D by itself did not confer any resistance to inhibitors of PI4KB and OSBP. However, the double mutant (i.e., 2C-N2D/3A-H57Y) showed better replication than the 3A-H57Y single mutant in the presence of inhibitors. Growing evidence suggests that alterations in lipid homeostasis affect the proteolytic processing of the poliovirus polyprotein. Therefore, we studied the effect of PI4KB or OSBP inhibition on proteolytic processing of the CVB3 polyprotein during infection as well as in a replication-independent system. We show that both PI4KB and OSBP inhibitors specifically affected the cleavage at the 3A-3B junction, and that mutation 3A-H57Y recovered impaired proteolytic processing at this junction. Although 2C-N2D enhanced replication of the 3A-H57Y single mutant, we did not detect additional effects of this substitution on polyprotein processing, which leaves the mechanism of how 2C-N2D contributes to the resistance to be revealed.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) and its related proteins (ORPs) constitute a large, evolutionarily conserved family of lipid-binding proteins that are associated with a wide range of cellular activities. The core function of OSBP/ORPs appears to be moving lipids between cellular membranes in a non-vesicular manner. Recent studies have unveiled a novel, counter-transport mechanism of cellular lipid transfer mediated by OSBP/ORPs at the membrane contact sites that involves phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate. Importantly, the OSBP/ORPs family has also been implicated in cell signalling pathways and cancer development. Here, we summarize recent progress in understanding the role of OSBP/ORPs in cancer development, and discuss how the lipid transfer function of OSBP/ORPs may underpin their role in tumorigenesis.

Abstract
Membrane contact sites enable interorganelle communication by positioning organelles in close proximity using molecular "tethers." With a growing understanding of the importance of contact sites, the hunt for new contact sites and their tethers is in full swing. Determining just what is a tether has proven challenging. Here, we aim to delineate guidelines that define the prerequisites for categorizing a protein as a tether. Setting this gold standard now, while groups from different disciplines are beginning to explore membrane contact sites, will enable efficient cooperation in the growing field and help to realize a great collaborative opportunity to boost its development.

Abstract
The genus Enterovirus (e.g. poliovirus, coxsackievirus, rhinovirus) of the Picornaviridae family of positive-strand RNA viruses includes many important pathogens linked to a range of acute and chronic diseases for which no approved antiviral therapy is available. Targeting a step in the life cycle that is highly conserved provides an attractive strategy for developing broad-range inhibitors of enterovirus infection. A step that is currently explored as a target for the development of antivirals is the formation of replication organelles, which support replication of the viral genome. To build replication organelles, enteroviruses rewire cellular machinery and hijack lipid homeostasis pathways. For example, enteroviruses exploit the PI4KIIIβ-PI4P-OSBP pathway to direct cholesterol to replication organelles. Here, we uncover that TTP-8307, a known enterovirus replication inhibitor, acts through the PI4KIIIβ-PI4P-OSBP pathway by directly inhibiting OSBP activity. However, despite a shared mechanism of TTP-8307 with established OSBP inhibitors (itraconazole and OSW-1), we identify a number of notable differences between these compounds. The antiviral activity of TTP-8307 extends to other viruses that require OSBP, namely the picornavirus encephalomyocarditis virus and the flavivirus hepatitis C virus.

Abstract
Positive-strand RNA viruses modulate lipid homeostasis to generate unique, membranous “replication organelles” (ROs) where viral genome replication takes place. Hepatitis C virus, encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV), and enteroviruses have convergently evolved to hijack host phosphatidylinositol 4-kinases (PI4Ks), which produce PI4P lipids, to recruit oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP), a PI4P-binding protein that shuttles cholesterol to ROs. Consistent with the proposed coupling between PI4K and OSBP, enterovirus mutants resistant to PI4KB inhibitors are also resistant to OSBP inhibitors. Here, we show that EMCV can replicate without accumulating PI4P/cholesterol at ROs, by acquiring point mutations in nonstructural protein 3A. Remarkably, the mutations conferred resistance to PI4K but not OSBP inhibitors, thereby uncoupling the levels of dependency of EMCV RNA replication on PI4K and OSBP. This work may contribute to a deeper understanding of the roles of PI4K/PI4P and OSBP/cholesterol in membrane modifications induced by positive-strand RNA viruses. Positive-strand RNA [(+)RNA] viruses are true masters of reprogramming host lipid trafficking and synthesis to support virus genome replication. Via their membrane-associated 3A protein, picornaviruses of the genus Enterovirus (e.g., poliovirus, coxsackievirus, and rhinovirus) subvert Golgi complex-localized phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIIβ (PI4KB) to generate “replication organelles” (ROs) enriched in phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P). PI4P lipids serve to accumulate oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP), which subsequently transfers cholesterol to the ROs in a PI4P-dependent manner. Single-point mutations in 3A render enteroviruses resistant to both PI4KB and OSBP inhibition, indicating coupled dependency on these host factors. Recently, we showed that encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV), a picornavirus that belongs to the Cardiovirus genus, also builds PI4P/cholesterol-enriched ROs. Like the hepatitis C virus (HCV) of the Flaviviridae family, it does so by hijacking the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-localized phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIIα (PI4KA). Here we provide genetic evidence for the critical involvement of EMCV protein 3A in this process. Using a genetic screening approach, we selected EMCV mutants with single amino acid substitutions in 3A, which rescued RNA virus replication upon small interfering RNA (siRNA) knockdown or pharmacological inhibition of PI4KA. In the presence of PI4KA inhibitors, the mutants no longer induced PI4P, OSBP, or cholesterol accumulation at ROs, which aggregated into large cytoplasmic clusters. In contrast to the enterovirus escape mutants, we observed little if any cross-resistance of EMCV mutants to OSBP inhibitors, indicating an uncoupled level of dependency of their RNA replication on PI4KA and OSBP activities. This report may contribute to a better understanding of the roles of PI4KA and OSBP in membrane modifications induced by (+)RNA viruses.

Abstract
Cholesterol levels in intracellular membranes are constantly adjusted to match with specific organelle functions. Cholesterol is kept high in the plasma membrane (PM) because it is essential for its barrier function, while low levels are found in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) where cholesterol mediates feedback control of its own synthesis by sterol-sensor proteins. The ER→Golgi→PM concentration gradient of cholesterol in mammalian cells, and ergosterol in yeast, appears to be sustained by specific intracellular transport processes, which are mostly mediated by lipid transfer proteins (LTPs). Here we review a recently described function of two LTPs, OSBP and its yeast homolog Osh4p, which consists in creating a sterol gradient between membranes by vectorial transport. OSBP also contributes to the formation of ER/Golgi membrane contact sites, which are important hubs for the transfer of several lipid species. OSBP and Osh4p organize a counterflow transport of lipids whereby sterols are exchanged for the phosphoinositide PI4P, which is used as a fuel to drive sterol transport.

Abstract
Glycolipids are synthesized in and on various organelles throughout the cell. Their trafficking inside the cell is complex and involves both vesicular and protein-mediated machineries. Most important for the bulk lipid transport is the vesicular system, however, lipids moved by transfer proteins are also becoming more characterized. Here we review the latest advances in the glycolipid transfer protein (GLTP) and the phosphoinositol 4-phosphate adaptor protein-2 (FAPP2) field, from a membrane point of view.

Abstract
Sphingomyelin (SM) is a dominant sphingolipid in membranes of mammalian cells and this lipid class is specifically enriched in the plasma membrane, the endocytic recycling compartment, and the trans Golgi network. The distribution of SM and cholesterol among cellular compartments correlate. Sphingolipids have extensive hydrogen-bonding capabilities which together with their saturated nature facilitate the formation of sphingolipid and SM-enriched lateral domains in membranes. Cholesterol prefers to interact with SMs and this interaction has many important functional consequences. In this review, the synthesis, regulation, and intracellular distribution of SMs are discussed. The many direct roles played by membrane SM in various cellular functions and processes will also be discussed. These include involvement in the regulation of endocytosis and receptor-mediated ligand uptake, in ion channel and G-protein coupled receptor function, in protein sorting, and functioning as receptor molecules for various bacterial toxins, and for non-bacterial pore-forming toxins. SM is also an important constituent of the eye lens membrane, and is believed to participate in the regulation of various nuclear functions. SM is an independent risk factor in the development of cardiovascular disease, and new studies have shed light on possible mechanism behind its role in atherogenesis.
