LDB16 [YCL005W]
Low dye-binding protein 16; Protein involved in lipid droplet (LD) assembly; forms a complex with Sei1p at ER-LD contact sites, stabilizing contact sites; ensures that LDs bud from the ER towards the cytosolic side of the membrane; null mutants have decreased net negative cell surface charge and localized accumulation of phosphatidic acid (PA) marker proteins; GFP-fusion protein expression is induced in response to MMS; null mutant can be complemented by the human seipin, BSCL2
