Popis: Lysosomes play an important role in cellular LDL-cholesterol uptake. Here, the authors perform a genome-wide genetic screen for cholesterol regulators and identify C18orf8 as a conserved subunit of a trimeric Rab7 GEF that controls LDL trafficking and NPC1-dependent lysosomal cholesterol export.
