Gene information for SAR1B (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID51128
Official gene symbolSAR1B
Full nameSAR1 homolog B (S. cerevisiae)
Aliases,ANDD,CMRD,GTBPB,SARA2,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a small GTPase that acts as a homodimer. The encoded protein is activated by the guanine nucleotide exchange factor PREB and is involved in protein transport from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi. This protein is part of the COPII coat complex. Defects in this gene are a cause of chylomicron retention disease (CMRD), also known as Anderson disease (ANDD). Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
