Scap contain 2 domain:
•NH2-terminal membrane attachment domain, with eight transmembrane (TM)
helices separated by hydrophilic loops. Helices 2–6 comprise the sterol-sensing
domain.
•COOH terminal domain which bind with COOH terminal domain of SREBPs

Function of SREBP
Insulin regulate hepatic glucose level by inhibiting glucose production and
stimulating glycogenesis.
Once glycogen store is replenished glucose enter glycolytic pathway and
oxidation.
Insulin’s action in modulating lipid- glucose homeostasis is regulated by
SREBPs.
Insulin and SREBPs stimulate key lipogenic enzymes, as ACC, FAS.
