Cholesterol is the only precursor for all steroids produced in mammals. During hormone induced acute steroidogenesis, large quantities of cholesterol is trafficked from its intracellular stores to the cholesterol-poor organelles, mitochondria, to be converted to pregnenolone, the first of all steroids. Although steroidogenesis is extensively studied, the actual source organelle that stores and then mobilizes cholesterol for utilization in steroid production and the pathway that assists this hydrophobic molecule to be trafficked to mitochondria are yet to be determined. Utilizing the domain 4 (D4) of the Perfringolysin O protein produced by Clostridium perfringens, which binds to high concentrations of cholesterol in membranes without cytoto...
