Gene summaryThe selective export of proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is mediated by the coat protein complex II (COPII) that assembles at discrete sites on the membrane known as endoplasmic reticulum exit sites (ERES), or transitional ER sites. SEC16A is a peripheral membrane protein that defines ERES in mammalian cells and is required for protein transport from ER to Golgi (Watson et al., 2006 [PubMed 17005010]).[supplied by OMIM]
