In response to cholesterol deprivation, SCAP escorts SREBP transcription factors from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi complex for their proteolytic activation, leading to gene expression for cholesterol synthesis and uptake. Here we show that in cholesterol-fed cells ER-localized SCAP interacts through Sac1 phosphoinositide 4-phosphate (PI4P) phosphatase with a VAP/OSBP complex, which mediates counter-transport of ER cholesterol and Golgi PI4P at ER-Golgi contact sites. SCAP knockdown inhibited the turnover of PI4P perhaps due to a cholesterol transport defect and altered the subcellular distribution of the VAP/OSBP complex. As in the case of perturbation of lipid transfer complexes at ER-Golgi contact sites, SCAP knockdown inhibited the biogenesis of thetrans-Golgi network-derived transport carriers CARTS, which was reversed by expression of wild-type SCAP but not cholesterol sensing-defective mutants. Altogether, our findings reveal a new role of SCAP under cholesterol-fed conditions in the facilitation of CARTS biogenesis at ER-Golgi contact sites, depending on the ER cholesterol.SummarySCAP is the key regulatory protein in cholesterol metabolism. Wakana et al. describe a new role of SCAP in controlling Golgi PI4P turnover and the biogenesis of the Golgi-derived transport carries CARTS via cholesterol/PI4P exchange machinery at ER-Golgi contact sites.
