摘要
It has been proposed that the steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein is the protein responsible for the acute regulation of steroid hormone biosynthesis. Virtually all of the observations made to date are consistent with this proposal. In this short review, background information leading to the discovery and characterization of the StAR protein and several recent and interesting observations concerning this protein are summarized.
