Gene: SEC23A

Alternate names for this Gene: CLSD|hSec23A

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the SEC23 subfamily of the SEC23/SEC24 family. It is part of a protein complex and found in the ribosome-free transitional face of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and associated vesicles. This protein has similarity to yeast Sec23p component of COPII. COPII is the coat protein complex responsible for vesicle budding from the ER. The encoded protein is suggested to play a role in the ER-Golgi protein trafficking.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 14

Location in Chromosome : 14q21.1

Description of this Gene: Sec23 homolog A, COPII coat complex component

Type of Gene: protein-coding
