Summary: Enables bile acid transmembrane transporter activity and protein heterodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including bile acid and bile salt transport; positive regulation of establishment of protein localization; and positive regulation of protein glycosylation. Located in basolateral plasma membrane. Part of protein-containing complex. Is expressed in liver and small intestine. Orthologous to human SLC51B (SLC51 subunit beta).

What's a GeneRIF?

Data suggest that transport of bile acid taurocholate is retained when OstB is truncated to contain only the transmembrane domain with 15 additional residues on each side and co-expressed with intact OstA (organic solute transporter alpha subunit); shorter fragments of OstB are inactive.
Title: Global functions of extracellular, transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of organic solute transporter β-subunit.
These findings provide direct support for the hypothesis that Ostalpha-Ostbeta is a major basolateral transporter of bile acids and conjugated steroids in the intestine, kidney, and liver.
Title: Ostalpha-Ostbeta is required for bile acid and conjugated steroid disposition in the intestine, kidney, and liver.
These data indicate that Ostalpha-Ostbeta is essential for intestinal bile acid transport in mice.
Title: The organic solute transporter alpha-beta, Ostalpha-Ostbeta, is essential for intestinal bile acid transport and homeostasis.
Present as heterodimers (with Ost alpha) and/or heteromultimers; the interaction between Ostalpha and Ostbeta increases the stability of the proteins and is required for delivery of the heteromeric complex to the plasma membrane.
Title: Heterodimerization, trafficking and membrane topology of the two proteins, Ost alpha and Ost beta, that constitute the organic solute and steroid transporter.
These results indicate that expression of Ostalpha and Ostbeta are highly regulated in response to cholestasis and that this response is dependent on the FXR bile acid receptor.
Title: Upregulation of a basolateral FXR-dependent bile acid efflux transporter OSTalpha-OSTbeta in cholestasis in humans and rodents.
The mouse Ostalpha and Ostbeta promoters are unusual in that they contain functional FXR and LRH elements, which mediate, respectively, positive and negative feedback regulation by bile acids.
Title: Regulation of the mouse organic solute transporter alpha-beta, Ostalpha-Ostbeta, by bile acids.
the selective localization of OSTalpha and OSTbeta to the basolateral plasma membrane of epithelial cells responsible for bile acid and sterol reabsorption.
Title: OSTalpha-OSTbeta: a major basolateral bile acid and steroid transporter in human intestinal, renal, and biliary epithelia.
In conclusion, we identified Ost-alpha/Ost-beta as a novel FXR target. Absent Ost-alpha/Ost-beta induction in CA-fed FXR(-/-) animals may contribute to increased liver injury in these animals.
Title: Coordinated induction of bile acid detoxification and alternative elimination in mice: role of FXR-regulated organic solute transporter-alpha/beta in the adaptive response to bile acids.
Co-expression of mouse Ostalpha-Ostbeta, but not the individual subunits, stimulated Na(+)-independent bile acid uptake and the apical-to-basolateral transport of taurocholate
Title: The heteromeric organic solute transporter alpha-beta, Ostalpha-Ostbeta, is an ileal basolateral bile acid transporter.
OSTalpha and OSTbeta mRNA levels were induced in the adrenals and kidneys of wild-type, but not FXR-/-, mice
Title: FXR regulates organic solute transporters alpha and beta in the adrenal gland, kidney, and intestine.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
