SEC61A2 - SEC61 translocon subunit alpha 2 Gene

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 55176

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene has similarity to a mouse protein which suggests a role in the insertion of secretory and membrane polypeptides into the endoplasmic reticulum. It may also be required for the assembly of membrane and secretory proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]
Broad expression in brain (RPKM 12.8), testis (RPKM 10.0) and 24 other tissues.
