Gene information for SIL1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID64374
Official gene symbolSIL1
Full nameSIL1 homolog, endoplasmic reticulum chaperone (S. cerevisiae)
Aliases,BAP,MSS,ULG5,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a resident endoplasmic reticulum (ER), N-linked glycoprotein with an N-terminal ER targeting sequence, 2 putative N-glycosylation sites, and a C-terminal ER retention signal. This protein functions as a nucleotide exchange factor for another unfolded protein response protein. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Marinesco-Sjogren syndrome. Alternate transcriptional splice variants have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq]
