Sec23a - Sec23 homolog A, COPII coat complex component

Predicted to enable GTPase activator activity and zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in COPII-coated vesicle cargo loading and protein localization to plasma membrane. Predicted to be located in bounding membrane of organelle; cytosol; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be extrinsic component of membrane. Predicted to be part of COPII vesicle coat. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum exit site. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in craniolenticulosutural dysplasia. Orthologous to human SEC23A (SEC23 homolog A, COPII coat complex component). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
