STARD4 is a major nonvesicular sterol transport protein. U2OS-SRA cells were transfected with STARD4 CRISPR constructs and/or treated with energy depletion (ED) medium. (A) FRAP measurements for cells expressing STARD4 CRISPR constructs with or without ED. Control, t1/2 = 14.5 ± 1.5 min; SD4 CRISPR, t1/2 = 22.4 ± 2.1 min; ED, t1/2 = 21.2 ± 3.2 min; SD4 CRISPR + ED, t1/2 = 24.1 ± 1.3 min. (B) DHE efflux measurements for cells expressing STARD4 CRISPR constructs with or without ED. Control, t1/2 = 14.9 ± 0.9 min; SD4 CRISPR, t1/2 = 20.2 ± 0.4 min; ED, t1/2 = 18.3 ± 1.1 min; SD4 CRISPR + ED, t1/2 = 24.8 ± 0.3 min. (C) Normalized sterol transfer rate constants for FRAP (red) and efflux (blue) experiments under control, ED, STARD4-CRISPR and CRISPR-ED conditions. Each data point is derived from an average of at least nine experiments (±SE). Data are fitted to single-exponential curves.
