SEC61A2, SEC61 translocon subunit alpha 2

SEC61A2, SEC61 translocon subunit alpha 2

• 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]
