Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the SEC13 family of WD-repeat proteins. It is a constituent of the endoplasmic reticulum and the nuclear pore complex. It has similarity to the yeast SEC13 protein, which is required for vesicle biogenesis from endoplasmic reticulum during the transport of proteins. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Forensic Context

A study in mice demonstrated that the SEC13 was down-regulated in brain tissue at 8 hours (0.495-fold) and 24 hours (0.451-fold) following whole-body irradiation with 10 Gy γ-rays, identifying it as a protein transport/folding marker responsive to ionizing radiation [Zhao et al. DOI:10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-05-2418].
